Thanks Michael. Doesn't look like very impressive numbers though for a 1B.

Agreed. Nothing in those stats suggest he'll be anything for the Orioles. Maybe he's a good guy who is friends with better unsigned Cuban players and this is to lure them in to the fold?

Believe I saw he had the same agent as Miranda and was at the same 4 player Cuban try out. Might have been a 2 for 1 package. Dude is jacked though.

Went yard last night. Three hits in his first four games including a double and a homer.

He homered last night. I know nothing about him.

Big dude, clean swing, moderate lag, you can see him maybe hitting for some power down the road. Hard to tell more than that from BP video, obviously.

Someone told me that he swung and missed a curveball by about three feet yesterday. Then in typical Single-A pitcher fashion, they threw him a fastball next and he lined a single.

Pretty sure I've seen Adam Jones and Chris Davis do that once or twice!
