The guy says he is 23. Scouts project him as a .280+ 20+ HR hitter. He is a left handed 1b/of. The deal is for 4yrs 2mil with a 500K bonus. It is a MLB contract and will require that he stay on the 40 man roster.

The guy says he is 23.

So he is probably 29.

more like 25 is what I am thinking. You usually can tell if a guy is 7 yrs older than he says he is. 1-3, probably not.

Didn't he play in the little league world series last year?
