O's finalize deal with teen OF from Curacao

BALITMORE -- The Orioles have agreed to terms with international prospect J'Rudjeanon Isenia, a 16-year-old outfielder out of Curacao.

Isenia is the latest signing for a Baltimore club that is making an effort to ramp up what was a near-nonexistent international effort prior to this year. The $125,000 contract was agreed upon earlier this year, but made official on Tuesday afternoon.
