That jumped out to me as well. Seems like the most kids from DR in recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 And lastly, Armstrong Muhoozi of Uganda (Pirates) became just the second position player from the East African nation to sign with an MLB organization. Greg Presto spent time with Muhoozi over the last couple of months, and has a video feature to go with a great story. theathletic.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg_Walker Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Merkin's article quotes the signing bonus of Alan Escobar and Jefrank Sivla at $350k each. If that's the case I think they've spent $5.6m of their budget and only have roughly $600k left for the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credepopsup Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The number of confirmed signings in the 2025 class stands at 24 players. This will probably rise. One of the signings that was widely reported on January 15th - Roderick Medina 275k - was never confirmed. He pitched for St. Peter's HS (NY) this spring. Let's hope for better results than last year - 19 players signed, only 9 remain in the organization (9 released, 1 traded). Two of the remaining players were signed after the season had ended and haven't played a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credepopsup Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 (edited) I only use publicly available transactions and roster pages. Future Sox and other Sox sites are good for listing potential signings before the signing period starts on January 15th . I've got a basic spreadsheet and update it regularly. 2024 and 2025 classes: Edited May 18 by Credepopsup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
