MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez reports that the Astros have signed Cuban infielder
Yulieski Gurriel to a five-year, $47.5 million contract.
Houston wins the bidding for a player who drew interest from over a dozen
major league teams, including the Dodgers, Giants, Yankees, Mets, and Padres.
Gurriel primarily played third base in Cuba, so this agreement would seem to
put a sudden block on the rise of Astros third base prospect Alex Bregman.
One of those nice problems to have. Gurriel, 32, is a .335/.417/.580 hitter
in 15 professional seasons between Cuba and Japan and should only need a few
weeks of tune-up at-bats in the minor leagues.

太空人以5年47.5M簽下先前成為自由球員的古巴32歲內野手
生涯都在古巴聯賽也短暫待過日職,多年來國際賽幾乎都看的到他的身影
好友Cespedes也大力推薦"He was the best player in Cuba"
so..最近升上3A且打得不錯的Bregman未來要何去何從?
