Yoenis Cespedes won’t be the only member of his family to have plenty of eyes on him this spring.
His 19-year-old brother, Yoelkis, is slated to play for Cuba in the Caribbean Series which begins on February 1 in Mexico. Several scouts believe it’s the first time the younger Cespedes will play outside of Cuba, so he hasn’t been seen by many.
And he has yet to release a Youtube video, like Yoenis famously did in 2011. The footage of the Mets slugger working out, hitting homers and roasting a pig over an open fire became the stuff of legend.
