The Los Angeles Dodgers have cleaned up on the international signing market, restocking their minor league system with some of the best young players from around the globe.
Yaisel Sierra figured to be the next great international Dodger pitcher after he defected from Cuba.
Sierra signed a six-year, $30 million deal with LA in February of 2016, as his blistering fastball and sharp slider figured to be a quality combination at the MLB level, provided he managed to get his control problems sorted out.
