How much does it cost to get him signed, you think? $1.5m?

Um
1. Mark Vientos (17.5), SS, Flanagan HS (FL), Miami (FL) commit: Vientos is aged like a 2018 prospect but even if he was a year older, he may still be the top player in this class. He’s a 6’3/170 shortstop with a chance to stick at the position and a broad base of precocious skills that led one scout to mention Manny Machado. Vientos turned 15 in late December and has to be considered alongside 2016-eligible Venezuelans SS Kevin Maitan and C Abraham Gutierrez as the top players in the world at that age.
Edit: So there's a real chance that with his slot being about 1.1 he's going to eat into most of the savings we created with 6-10. If he takes ~1.6m to sign, that's +500k or the ~775 or so.

I find this talk about Kelenic comical. He's a 19 year old kid who hit .253 at Kingsport and struck out once a game and people are talking like he's the second coming. Get real people. When you have a chance to get the best reliever in the game who's only 24 and give up Kelenic in the deal, you MAKE that deal. Stop with the nonsense.

Wishful thinking by the writer if he thinks Vientos will even sniff Brooklyn this year. He has GCL written all over him, with a possible promotion to Kingsport if he does well.
