The Colorado Rockies have been active once again in 2015 with signing international prospects, dipping into Panama and Venezuela in the last two days to sign a shortstop and an outfielder.
Combined, both prospects (Enrique Saldana and Daniel Montano) commanded a total of $2,500,000 in signing bonus money, and as young as both are, it’ll be a few years before we see them in the full season American minor leagues, let alone Denver, but international signings are yet another area the Rox have excelled at over the recent history of their franchise (think Raimel Tapia, Cristhian Adames, Jhoulys Chacin, Ubaldo Jimenez, and many more).
