The Houston Astros have signed another international prospect, inking infielder Yuaxander Silveira for a bonus of $25,000. Silveria is an 17-year-old infielder from Cuba.
Francys Romero reported the signing and noted that Silveria is a contact hitter with speed and plenty of upside. He trained at Yuan Pino’s academy. This signing will count towards the 2025 International Bonus Pool.
