Agent says Sano, Twins reach deal

Posted by GameSetMatch on September 30th, 2009

The agent for Dominican shortstop Miguel Sano said the Minnesota Twins have agreed to sign his client for a bonus of $3.15 million.

Sano’s agent, Rob Plummer, said Tuesday that he expects an agreement to be signed this week.

”I’m very thankful to get this chance to sign with the Twins,” Sano said. ”I’m going to work very hard to try to get to the majors in two years.”

Twins General Manager Bill Smith declined comment.

Major League Baseball, as it does with many young Dominican players, investigated Sano’s age and identity earlier this year. His identity was verified, Plummer said, and the age investigation was inconclusive. Sano says he is 16 years old.
