The Giants are close to adding another athletic prospect to their system after coming to terms with Cuban outfielder Eddy Julio Martinez on a signing bonus worth $2.5 million, according to an industry source.
The deal is pending a physical. The Giants have not confirmed the agreement.
The 6-foot-2, 195-pound Martinez, 20, ranked No. 4 on MLB.com's Top 30 International Prospect list, joins a class of top international prospects for the Giants that includes shortstop Lucius Fox from the Bahamas and catcher Ricardo Genoves from Venezuela.
Fox and Genoves signed for $6 million and $550,000, respectively.
