Good to see them delve into this market:



Cubs Agree To Deals With Pair Of Cuban Players
By Tim Dierkes [January 27 at 4:31pm CST]
The Cubs have reached agreements to sign a pair of Cuban players, MLBTR's Nick Collias has learned. They'll be signing outfielder Ruby Silva for $1.2MM as well as catcher Yaniel Cabeza for $500K.

Silva, 21, is a versatile left-handed hitter who played center field for the champion Havana Vaqueros in the 48th Cuban National series. He can play all three outfield positions and perhaps even the middle infield. He's a good athlete who draws praise as a plus runner with a plus arm. He could begin his pro career in low A ball with the Peoria Chiefs.

Cabeza is a catch-and-throw backstop who reminds some of a young Yadier Molina, though his bat has improved in the last year.

The Ricketts are learning that they need to buy politicians to get things done and are slowly going about it.
