DONE DEAL: Twins Officially Sign 18-year-old Cuban Top Prospect in Club Record Deal For a Teenager

Yandro Hernandez is a name Minnesota Twins fans should remember because if he becomes an MLB player, his journey to the majors will be traced to last Thursday, when he formally signed a contract.

Francys Romero, a Cuban baseball expert, appeared to be in the room when Hernandez signed the contract on Thursday. He tweeted that Hernandez will receive a $800,000 bonus.

Romero revealed that the Twins planned to sign Hernandez in mid-February, describing him as the finest contact hitter among Cuban prospects under the age of 18. Romero claimed Hernandez possesses “advanced hitting skills.”

The 18-year-old is a switch-hitter who “projects power and batting average,” according to Romero.
