Saw on MLB Trade Rumors that he defected.

Any idea of who he signs with? He threw some major heat during the WBC. 100 MPH at the WBC if you really trusted those guns, but even if it wasnt 100+ it still had to be in the mid to high 90s which out of a lefty is pretty impressive.

Id say he needs to work on the control a bit and he didnt show much in terms of offspeed stuff but you can see a lot of potential in the guy.
