Quote Foreign professionals -- defined as players who are at least 25 years of age and have played as a professional in a foreign league recognized by Major League Baseball for a minimum of six seasons -- maintain exemption from the international bonus pool. https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/international-amateur-free-agency-bonus-pool-money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Soxfan Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Garfein posted a link saying that the Sox signed a Venezuelan pitcher named Marcos Barrios. Anyone have any info? Says that he will sign within current signing period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I couldn't bring myself up to discuss but BA had ratings for the previous class. There were 14 players added to our division before the sox showed up in the 70s. Is there actually, probably a real difference in talent between 30 and 70...probably not. But boy it sure would be easier to trust that the sox are the smarties if they were not so horrendous on the field for over a decade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That goes by bonus amount and not how good the players are but I understand the frustration. The Sox strategy is stupid 5 hours ago, CaliSoxFanViaSWside said: Don't they still have like $1M left ?
