Salcedo Weighs Offers

The rest of you guys can get all excited about the post-season and stuff, but here in kenfromalexandriaville, the prospect watch never sleeps.

Chris Kline is reporting in BA that the Indians are among the active suitors of Edward Salcedo, a 16-year-old Dominican mega-prospect (according to his agent, Scott Boras).  Kline says the asking price is #3.5 million.

Here's a link.  http://www.baseballamerica.com/blog/prospects/?p=599

Re: Salcedo Weighs Offers
is this the guy indiansfan was asking about a little while back?

Yes, that's him!
Hello everyone,

sbricker - yes, that's him!  Thanks ken for the update.  I might pass that along to MinorLeagueBall - many were asking about his status.

Again, thanks!  :-)

Go Tribe! :-)

Re: Yes, that's him!
I should let you know he's very much not Jordan Brown. Consider yourself warned.

Re: Yes, that's he!
You mean he couldn't look as good in an evening gown as someone with an androgynous name like Jordan Brown?  Or what?

You mean he's higher-ceiling, but not as well-
developed?  I think I know.   :-)  I just hope we get him, after hearing rumors a month or so ago that we were in the hunt for him.
Go Tribe! :-)

Re: You mean he's higher-ceiling, but not as well-
Oh, no. I don't mean, "He isn't a Jordan Brown-esque prospect." I mean the guy is actually not the same person as Jordan Brown, which means you'll be rooting for and writing about a non-Jordan Brown personage.

I kid, I kid.

Thanks for clarifying! :-)
Hello fleerdon,

I think I'll be able to manage - I can have more than one favorite Indians' prospect, right?  :-)

Go Tribe! :-)

Re: Salcedo Weighs Offers
It is I, fleerdon and Fiddlesticks, your humble servant (executes a full curtsy, then bows to indiansfan as the first Edwardian in these parts).  Oh, gosh, I crack myself up.

Re: Salcedo Weighs Offers
I thought that there was an August 31 deadline for signing international free agents.  Why doesn't that apply to Salcedo?  Thanks.
