Here's what I said on twitter a few days ago: Buzz on Cuban prospect Adeiny Hechevarria: "Chiseled body w/ a chance for the bat to play" says a top evaluator who recently saw him. That should shed some light. I've been working on finding out more on him. He's interesting but probably more risk than Iglesias.

Hey guys. Just noticed the chatter on here. Thought I could shed some light on Hechevarria. I've been in touch with some evaluators that have been on him and the word I've gotten has that Iglesias is far and away the superior defender. This isn't a knock on Hechevarria, but a compliment to just how special scouts think Iglesias will be with the glove. Also was told that it's not a given that he'll be a better hitter than Iglesias but his body and offensive upside is better. He won't move up as quickly but lots of potential. Also, he probably will not get what Iglesias got in terms of money but all it takes is one club to prefer him. If you'd like to see my original comments directly - I just tried to link but it won't let me. Hoping to stay on top of the international market so stay tuned. - Frankie Piliere
