‘The Journey is about to begin’
Sport Illustrated reports that the Twins $3.15 million prospect, Dominican Miguel Angel Sano has been approved for his work visa in the United States, though MLB officials still have not verified Sano’s age.
While Sano’s talent was abundant, so too were questions about his age and identity. His 6-foot-3, 190-pound frame and precocious skills on the field fueled questions about whether Sano was really the 16-year-old he claimed to be. Those concerns echoed louder when Major League Baseball, which conducts extensive investigations to help prevent teams from being defrauded, issued a report concluding that Sano’s identity was verified but his age was “undetermined.”
Sano will be brought into the states next spring. He told ESPN in September that he hopes to get to the majors in two years. Can fans wait that long for a decent middle infielder?
