Padres Sign Dominican CF, Alcantara
Acording to “tweets” by Baseball America’s Ben Badler and ESPN’s Jorge Arangure, the San Diego Padres have signed Dominican Centerfielder Yoan Alcantara for $135k. Alcantara reportedly has “good bat speed and power potential” and is a “60” runner with “60” arm speed (on the 20-80 scouting scale). He is likely a 16 year old and thus not eligible to play until 2010.
Edit (12:20):
Alcantara hails from San Cristobal.
