Santo Domingo.– The Brewers have agreed to terms with 16-year-old Dominican shortstop Santo Aybar, according to online reports.

The report, which cited Brewers Latin American scouting coordinator Fernando Arango as its source, said the signing would not be official until Aybar passed a Major League Baseball investigation into his age. That's now standard operating procedure for international signings.

Baseball America rated Aybar the 18th-best Dominican prospect on July 1, the date before teams were free to sign Latin American players. The terms of his signing bonus were not immediately available.

Well, we all can't be lucky enough to live under leadership like Castro...his "rule of law".... murdering those who disagree with him has worked out well for you I'm sure.

But then of course we could have the "rule of law" of the DR where major drug smugglers are set free and case files are lost while uneducated cops carry out their own brand of street justice on small-time thugs.

The DR culture breeds hard drinking, gun toting, SUV driving wanna~be sports figures whose education is no greater than the the last El Lapiz o Daddy Yankee rap video....genetically, DR ballplayers can swing a stick at rock...like most chimpanzees

The problem has been many prospects can't think much better than a chimp in a cage, and it's been proven when MLB tries to civilize them...and then sends them back to the island.

DoggPound,

And what positive benefit/solution is there in a nation that has the highest incarceration rate in the world with no end in sight to its drug & crime problems?

One positive solution would be to stop issuing visas.....no mas aqui...we should play by Austrailian rules!

........a second would be to purge our jails of those born in foreign lands....in other words send them back! MS13, Latin Kings, I could go on and on....run solid flights of Con Air and empty them onto the streets of their homeland......that'd eliminate 50% of the problem
