Jeff is joined by Lindsay Crosby (Locked On MLB Prospects) to break down the players who were signed and the impact they have on the Reds future. They also talk about the unique strategy the Reds have, when it comes to the International Signing Period, and why it has worked for them. Ricardo Cabrera has the "potential Five Tool player" tag on him and shows a ton of promise for the Cincinnati Reds. Anthuan Valencia has a good glove and may be undervalued. Esmith Pineda has a lot of power and could be a future Reds corner outfielder. The top three guys in this international signing class are really intriguing, says Lindsay Crosby. Ben Walmsley, an Australian, leads a group of three pitchers who are in the other seven International Prospects signed by the Cincinnati Reds. They also added Lisnerkin Lantigua and Nelfri Payano, both right-handed pitchers, to their group of signings. The Cincinnati Reds put together an intriguing International Signing Class. The Cincinnati Reds strategy, when it comes to the International Signing Period, differs from other teams and they have used that to their advantage.

Instead they look to Panama, Australia, and more for diamonds in the International Signing Period rough. *SUBSCRIBE* on YouTube and *FOLLOW* the podcast on your favorite app and on Twitter and Instagram @lockedonreds Also follow @jefffcarr on Twitter and @carrjefff on Instagram Call or text (513) 549-0159 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
