New York Yankees: Should the Yankees scoop up International prospect Dyan Jorge?

Dyan Jorge is a 16-year-old Cuban shortstop who was declared a free agent by the MLB on February 7th. The New York Yankees have no shortstop prospects, and Jorge shows promise. He is the number 15 on the International top 30 prospects list. Here are his stats: Hometown: Havana, Cuba, Position: SS Age: 16 DOB: 3/18/2003 Bats: R Throws: R Height: 6’2″ Weight: 165 lb. Scouting grades: Hit: 50 | Power: 40 | Run: 60 | Arm: 50 | Field: 60.

Jorge reminds some scouts of Alexei Ramirez because of his athleticism. Ramirez was a Cuban National the debuted with the White Sox in 2008.
