The 18-year old prospect was signed to a minor league contract by Pacific Rim scout Glen Barker, who also signed Chia-Jen Lo. Which worked out pretty well.
Barker:
He's a high-energy player with solid fundamentals. His ceiling for growth and improvement is high, and I feel he will be a solid Major League player down the road. I'm really excited for him to start his journey to the Major Leagues."
He'll report to the Instructional League in Kissimmee directly.
We first talked about this on August 20, when it was noted that his signing bonus was $350,000.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
