Sounds like twins have a high profile pick with verbal agreement for 2027 International Draft

[hotshotschamp]

The Minnesota Twins have agreed to terms with top international prospect, Venezuelan catcher Luis Medina, who is slated to sign for a $2.7 million bonus.  A standout from the JV1 Academy in Maracay, Venezuela, he is highly regarded for his strong arm and raw tools. 

Another catcher?

The Twins have worked to improve the results from their Latin America signings but it is difficult to project teenagers. Always good to see a kid with promise join our organization.

They've been prioritizing catchers for a year now.

Catchers have seemed to be good value in the international market.  The position in a little over a year and half will have gone from barren to nearly fully stocked with good prospects at every level.  Quite the change.

Nothing builds a championship culture quite like having four future Gold Glovers fighting for one spot while the pitching staff cries for help

Because no one has ever traded  a player before.  I consider the international leagues a total crap shoot.
