southsider2k5 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Looks like he is an 18 YO Cuban 3b and ranked #33 in MLBs top 50 international prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he’s a legit prospect and not some Yolbert Sanchez type. Will be nice once we start seeing an inflow of kids from the Dominican though.

I don’t know much about this kid TBH…I was more just saying he is a real prospect due to his age and ranking within the class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsox Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 2 hours ago, Chicago White Sox said: I’m not following here. We signed him when he was very young, he started his career in DSL, he made it to the White Sox, he stayed in MLB for several years..... he's probably the best player Sox ever signed who came up that way.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted Saturday at 09:00 AM Share Posted Saturday at 09:00 AM Fun, or sad, fact. The White Sox have had the #1 international prospect in a signing class join the organization, MULTIPLE TIMES. MLB Pipeline rankings go back to 2012... 2013: Eloy Jimenez (Adolfo #2, Gleyber #3, Devers #6) 2016: Luis Robert 2019: Yoelqui Cespedes (Jasson Dominguez #2, Norge Vera #5) 2020/2021: Yoelqui Cespedes In 2022 we didn't have the #1 guy, but we have the #4 guy (William Bergola) and the #5 Oscar Colas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adolfo sure looked good in a uniform at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
