I'll be updating their stats as the summer goes along, but these are the main players thus far. Deivy Estrada, the 16 year old pitcher, is the one huge piece to look at in terms of impact talent on this team. He has started the season extremely strong with 9 Ks in 9 IP and only 2 runs allowed, which is very good for his confidence going forward. Baseball America did a piece on Catcher Carlos Perez, who made their list of top DSL prospects to watch. Gustavo Pierre was paid a $700,000 signing bonus last year and his start is highly anticipated. Catcher Simon Vasquez is another player who's had a good start, starting out with a double, triple, and home run and 6 hits in 18 ABs. We'll see how they pan out, but hopefully there are a couple of gems in here.

  1. Great blog, keep us posted. Any word if Santiago Nessy will be joining his team? Or maybe DSL Blue Jays 2?

  2. Santiago Nessy was just signed July 2nd and therefore has a better chance of making the DLS2 Jays. He is very young, but is supposed to have very good power potential. He is a very long term project, sort of like Juan Duran is to the Reds organization. I'll update his status as soon as he starts to play!
