What is the scale for those ratings? 60 out of what?
20-80 scale.
Here is Pedro Leon for comparison


Leon hasn't sign still correct?

What position does Cruz play? Info seems to be limited or my googling is bad.

I google translated an article about the signing with a little more info. He is just referred to as an infielder as far as I can see:

Quote:


Miami, Florida - Recently the infielder from the capital Narbe Yadan Cruz had received the much desired Free Agency that allows him to negotiate with the Major League teams and thus be able to fulfill the dream of every player. Today the capital city managed to stamp his signing on a contract with the Houston Astros for a bonus of around $ 218K.

The renowned Cuban journalist Francys Romero had reported that the pact between the two since the news from the Free Agency came out.

The man from the capital became known after his name appeared on the famous list of 34 players "released" by the Cuban Baseball Federation in view of the failed agreement with MLB.

The young infielder wore the Industriales shirt in the last National Series and was only able to consume 15 at-bats on offense and make 25 impeccable shots on defense.

In his final year as a youth, Narbe averaged 281 with 5 doubles, a home run, 14 RBIs and 9 stolen bases in 12 attempts.

Doing a little more digging, it looks like he is 19 or about to turn 19. So still pretty young.

Another summary about him also translated.

Quote:

Narbe Yadn Cruz Caldern (Havana infielder, 18 years old): He is a versatile player, capable of throwing and defending second base, third base, center field and right. He made up the national team that attended the Youth Pan American Championship, held in the last days of November and early December 2018 in Panamanian territory, under the aegis of Mario Luis Valle from Pinar del Ro. During the 2018 national youth contest, he averaged .281 (32 hits in 114 chances), with five doubles, one homer, 14 RBIs and nine stolen bases in 12 attempts.

I don't understand this one. Perez has been reliable for the most part.

I don't know.

Maybe they're keeping him so if a game gets out of hand he's the one who pitches instead of a position player.

Eh...Whom I kidding...He'll still get meaningful innings

I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

No swings and misses, 2 GO and an infield fly for LMJ.

I'm going to say it. Someone had to. Lance has a mental issue on the road. And every game in the playoffs is on the road. He needs to either get his head right or find his safe space.

Its so frustrating that LMJ kills it just about every home start but I just know he will do poorly the next 2 road starts.

If this is all the offense we can muster against this rag arm, we're in a world of hurt and for a very short post-season.
