Editor's note: Over the next two weeks, we will examine the top 10 prospects in the A's organization. For each player, we will provide a scouting report and a realistic timetable for reaching the major leagues, as well as what he needs to do to stay there.
No. 8 - Lazaro Armenteros, OF
Back in 2016, the A's signed a 17-year-old Armenteros to a $3 million bonus. Clearly, they thought very highly of the Cuba native's natural ability and they still do.
Scouts have compared "Lazarito" to all-time greats like Bo Jackson and Willie Mays.
