Re: Jose Ortiz

He's a catcher with plus defensive tools and projects to have power and a little hit tool. Played for Puerto Rico Academy, IIRC, and wasn't expected to sign in the hopes of improving his draft status.

Was discussed (again, IIRC) as a possible high-round pick in later drafts. "One to watch" was the phrase, I think.
