Edison Suriel is a 5’10”, 160 lb. left-handed pitcher from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Born on October 24th, 1998, Suriel signed with the Miami Marlins through free agency on July 9th, 2015 for $140,000.
As I’ve stated in the past, players who begin their professional career in the Dominican Summer League tend to be low-risk, high-reward types of prospects. They also have a low success rate at making it to the major leagues. Notable exceptions on the current Miami Marlins incarnation are Jose Urena and Jarlin Garcia. Suriel would like nothing less than to also buck the trend.
