Good to see the Reds mentioned here. It was a bit frustrating that the article did not give any names of top Colombian prospects, after having said there were players there who could get $1 million plus. Bavasi has been quoted as saying the Reds have been working hard in Colombia.

Would love to see the Reds snag some highly-rated arms and/or infielders from LatAm this year.

Hearlded shortstops like Sano and Profar have fared particularly well since signing a couple years back.

I'd like to see them find a legitimate corner OF prospect.
