Alwinson Valdez

[JDBrewCrew]

What can people tell me about him? 17, just hit his 7th HR in the DSL, now hitting .282. Anyone seen a scouting report? Thanks!

[And That]

There are no scouting reports I'm aware of, I've asked around. I imagine if he strings together a few more home runs something will pop up. Something is likely to pop up after the end of the season as well.

Any information on his signing bonus? That might give a clue as to what the Brewers and other teams thought of him initially.

Someone had him in the last Tops 25 poll:

It will be interesting to see how the outfielders are distributed next year between Wisconsin, and the two rookie teams, with the young outfield groups in Helena and Arizona and the possibility of Rodriguez, Ernesto, Valdez and Leones all coming stateside.

That a good point, there is a lot of outfield playing time that'll need to be divvied up next summer. For what it's worth, this is how I have it right now (with obviously not everyone being able to fit):

 

Carolina

Ryan Aguilar, Zach Clark, Rob Henry, Tristen Lutz, Demi Orimoloye, Joantgel Segovia

 

Wisconsin

Pablo Abreu, LG Castillo, Bryan Connell, Jesus Lujano, Je'Von Ward, Jay Feliciano, Nic Pierre

 

(Insert Advanced-Rookie Affiliate City Name Here)

Joe Gray, Micah Bello, Larry Ernesto, Francis Florentino, Pablo Garabitos, Carlos Rodriguez

 

AZL

Oswel Leones, Anderson Melendez, Alwinson Valdez, Arbert Cipion

$80,000. July 2nd signing, 2017

TheJumpAround ironically was the first person to report his signing in the 2017 international signee thread.

 

Keep in mind, Ozzie Albies signed fir $350K and Ronald Acuna, Jr., signed for $100K and they are/were All-Stars and Top-25 prospects. With 16-year-olds, it's an even bigger crapshoot than with high-schoolers.

It looks like we need another rookie league team.
