...and he has been placed on the DL. Right shoulder strain.

Hindsight is 20/20 but I wish we would spend the international money on the top 16 year old guys rather than guys that we are hoping to be a number 5 starter type.

Free agents from the NPB/KBO don't cost against the international cap.

I know. I'm just talking about spending the money in general. Because we won't. It would be nice to grab some bats with the all pitcher draft.

A lot of money for little return thus far. It is good that we spend some now anyways compared to the days when 3 million was way too much for us to consider spending on Miguel Sano. Yes, he is injured this year, but at 21, he is soon going to be a big time bat at either third or first for the Twins for years to come

I still don't see PA signing off on 3 million for an international teenager.

They should know by next spring if it was a waste of resources. I don't think the FO was expecting dividends this year.

I agree. You wonder if it even got that far, though. I don't think Andy was going to do it either. Dominican scouting/signings/development were not his particular strength. Hope they get something eventually out of Soon, although that major league deal that requires his consent to be optioned may be a tough navigation.

From what I have read over the years, PA would rather pay for proven products then unproven kids.

I think if he can't get guys out next year Dan cuts him rather then try and stash him in the pen. No idea if Yoon and Boras would agree to more time in the minors.

[tntoriole]

I agree. It is a high risk roll, but you gotta play to win. Guys like Cano, Ortiz, Pedro, etc. will all be coming through that way in the future. You only need to hit on one of those picks in a decade to really transform the team.

Watch the documentary about him. It was basically owner collusion to keep his signing bonus down. They didn't want to set a precedent that best Dominican got paid more that the previous years player. After watching the documentary you'll see that the O's had the most interest until MLB pulled their act to keep his salary down.

I will watch. But as I recall the Orioles were interested maybe up to a 1 million signing bonus (which would have been larger than any they had ever paid), the Pirates were there in the 3-4 million range signing bonus and Twins got him for 3.15 million signing. Doesn't sound very collusion-y to me, but will watch, thanks!

I don't believe any of this.
