Happy Tuesday, AN!
Yesterday the international signing period officially opened up, allowing teams to put pen to paper and sign some prospects. Pretty much all of these kids are younger than 20 years old, so don’t go expecting to see these guys in the big leagues anytime soon.
The two big names the A’s reeled in were infielder Edgar Montero, and outfielder Jose Ramos. Montero ranked as the 43rd ranked prospect in the class and Ramos wasn’t too far behind at #47 on the top 50 list. Both happen to be 17 and will likely rise the ranks together.
