Yeremin Argenis Lara is a 6’1″, 160 lb. right-handed pitcher from Santo Domingo Centro, DR. Born on this date in 1998, he signed with the Miami Marlins through free agency on September 8th, 2015 for $100,000.
Very few players from each season’s Dominican Summer League squad ever eventually get a taste of the major leagues, somewhere between two-to-five percent. The expectation for these players is somewhere on the order of low-risk, high-reward. Lara’s chances at major league success are slim. However, he’s already taken his first step, spending part of the 2017 season with the GCL Marlins, in the domestic rookie league.
