Oakland Athletics’ Prospect Profile: Shortstop Yairo Munoz

The Oakland Athletics have a lot of middle infielders in their Minor League system including familiar names like Joey Wendle and Richie Martin. However, not many have heard of the A’s No. 13 shortstop prospect Yairo Munoz. Originally from the Dominican Republic, Munoz was signed at only 17 years old by the A’s in 2012.

Despite impressing scouts at the 2011 Under Armour All-America Game, it is hard to predict how these they will perform in the MLB system since these international players tend to sign at such a young age.
