大聯盟近期的調查發現一位已經跟教士隊有口頭協議，簽約金約400萬鎂的多明尼加大物新
秀實際的年齡比眾人以為的還要大五歲
看ESPN的報導
The teenager, who assumed the name Cesar Altagracia, verbally agreed to sign wit
h the Padres for about $4 million, a substantial bonus that signified he was con
sidered one of the top international prospects in his class. The transaction wou
ld have become official in January 2027, once Altagracia became eligible to sign
as a 16-year-old international free agent.
他的名字叫Cesar Altagracia，跟教士隊已經講好了等2027年滿16歲符合資格的時候就會簽
約
But MLB discovered he is 19 years old, not 14, as his documents stated. The teen
ager represented the Dominican Republic at the 2022 U-12 Baseball World Cup and
at the U-15 Pan American Championships this summer under the false identity, sou
rces said.
不過大聯盟發現他實際上的年紀是19歲，而非文件上的14歲。這位19歲大哥哥兩年前還代表
多明尼加打U-12世界盃以及今年的U-15泛美錦標賽
