PrintSame kid as the post below, but we are starting to get more details about Cesar Perez as well as the money involved. SI's Jon Heyman posted this on his twitter
rays signed Venezuelan third base phenom cesar perez, 16, for $1 million, i hear. kid can play
That's a nice chunk of change for the 6'2, 180 lbs third basemen. Perez is very young at age 16 and I've heard questions about his defense at third. Even if he doesn't stick at the hot corner, there have been whispers of him being able to move to the outfield. The big draw is his power potential. According to reports and everything else I can gather this kid shows a lot of pop from the right side.

Will we offer Diekroeger that much cash?
If not, Perez may essentially become our 2nd round draft pick.
First "FUN!"

Yeah, I question all these internationals
Id rather have our 2-5 rounders that we know their real ages and probably arent roiding than these Joel Guzman projects if I had to choose.
We wouldn't have signed him if we didn't investigate thoroughly.
Xenophobia is fun.
Brad Ziegler had a scoreless inning streak. Brad Ziegler had not met BJ Upton.
Haha yeah, wholesome American players never roid or lie and almost always work out.
And I bet this Mexican kid doesn’t even speak English.

Baseball players that are white never cheat
I bet Diekroger would have never even seen a needle if it werent for Tetanus
JJ Redick will never get his chance to start because he's too white.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
That's the little nugget of convenience that keeps getting left out though.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
If he doesn't work well at third
can we convert him to C? or do we have to wait for LUKE to sign?
Come ON Pat the Bust, Navi can not have more homers than you
