Yanks Watch Almedys Diaz

The Yanks were reportedly on the scene for the workout by Cuban SS Almedys Diaz today.   He can't be signed till next Thursday. He's already 23 and will be 24 this year and I'm not sure whether or not he is covered under the ever changing international rules.  I don't believe Omar Luis counted against the pool. Opinions seem to vary on what Diaz is and his upside. He did OPS over .900 before defecting, so it seems like he might be able to hit a little over here. We'll see what the Yanks do.  They need to add young talent any way they and anywhere they can.
