Adopted - Luis Santana

Post by MFS62 » Sat Dec 29, 2018 5:16 pm

I've adopted second baseman Luis Santana. He was rated #12 in various rankings, but that was before Kelenic and Dunn were traded for Robinson Cano. The 19 year old second baseman had a successful first year playing in the US:

I hope he continues his development and becomes Cano's replacement when Robinson is ready to move to another position.

Welcome, Luis. Mi casa es su casa.

Sorry. His tenure as your prospect was unfairly short. He had a really good performance in the more advanced rookie league. I always like guys who walk more than they strike out. It's way too early to tell how he'll turn out, but I wouldn't have parted with him for what we got.

All these years later, he's still going. Eight seasons into his pro career and he hasn't even reached Triple-A. But—he's also still just 24!
