The Braves love lefthanded pitching, and word in Latin America is that they like Dominican power lefty Edgar Ferreira this year. Scouts have called Ferreira's asking price exorbitant, but he has a chance to push seven figures with his bonus. The Braves are active in Panama again after signing Panamanian catcher Christian Bethancourt last year for $600,000. They have also been connected to Venezuelan shortstop Humberto Valor, though there's no clear leader for his services.

We should know by the end of the day or tomorrow who the Braves signed. There seem to be a lot more team in the mix this year than there normally are.

Braves sign 22 year old Nicaraguan outfielder. I assume he will start his career at some point this summer.
