Indians to dive back into international free agents
Teams can start signing international free agents Friday, but more so than in most baseball transactions, it's a business where the buyer must beware. Last year, the Indians spent $575,000 on a 17-year-old shortstop from the Dominican Republic named Jose Ozoria. Less than a week ago, they were informed by Major League Baseball that Ozoria wasn't who he said he was. Mirabelli said the Indians are prepared to make offers onfour to seven players. Three players the Indians have shown interest in are Dominican Republic shortstop Miguel Angel Santo and Cuban defectors left-hander Noel Arguellez and shortstop Jose Iglesias. Arguellez and Iglesias, both 19, defected last year in Canada during the World Junior Championships.

So True! I just saw Kobayashi pitch sunday night in AAA Columbus and he looks like he is overmatched by guys who have little chance to make the show. This doesn't sit well for me and I am sure the Indians are kicking themselves for giving him a contract.
