The International Market

My Scouting at the International level is not so hot as I decided not to partake this season. So far there hasn't been much to crow about so it appears. so this should be rather short.

Enrique Iglesias has been paid the most so far by the Charlotte Knights at $6.1M. Fancies himself as a 2B but a very weak one if you ask me, might be better suited in RF. Has the speed and contact if he can get on base which could be a trifle tricky.

Rating: C

Lariel Melendez was nabbed by the Dover Dung Beetles for $3.8M. Has the arm for the 3B position if things work out but the range and glove just may not be there. Could wind up being a decent hitter however. Many were scared off by his lack of health.

Rating: C+

Kevin Woo was overtly wooed by the chirping of the Dung Beetles also at $3.4M. Could be decent at the SS position but his hitting style might not be ML material in the end.

Rating: C

Max Galvez was picked up rather cheaply by the Texas Rangers for $2.1M. The range for 1B might be a bit below standards. Hitting could be a power positive however. Many were scared off by the lack of durability.

Rating: C+
