Wow, He Looks Good in Green and Gold

MLBTradeRumors has a small story about Miguel Angel Sano, a 15-year old shortstop (HEY! Don't we need one of those?) from the Dominican Republic.

I just thought this video was very cool, and like the title says, Sano looks fantastic in green and gold. Another story about him here at ESPN.

Man that kid looked absolutely graceful at SS

I dont think Ive ever seen anyone look that good with so little efford playing baseball before. And he’s only 15(ish)? Wow. Sign me up

And of course he looked amazing in green and gold. Cubbie blue didnt really bring out the best in him. Wonder if Billy is willing to take another risk in the Dominican.

You know things are bad when Bobby Crosby doesn't have the lowest batting average of any starter, yet he's hitting .138. Yes, you're 2009 Oakland Athletics.

Come on B.B. sign the kid

Look how good the last Miggy worked out. He looks 22 but even at that age he is going to be a stud for 10+ years. Give him the 3+ mil it will take for him to take care of his family and send him to Stockton so he can be in the Bigs in two years.

2nd Round Pick?

Although his price tag seems a bit higher than most second rounders receive, could the A’s spend the money from their lost 2nd round draft pick on this guy (or other guys of his potential)?

I for one, hope so.

If the A's can build around Holiday, Furcal, Cust, and maybe call up 2nd baseman Wes Childs at some point in the year, they have a shot to take a weak AL West. -- jameersju post on ESPN.com
