Description

In 2023, the Washington Nationals spent $4.9 million of their budgeted $5.17 million for international players on the #2 prospect Cristhian Vaquero aka "The Phenomenon" and the remaining $270,000 went towards signing 13 other international prospects. This indicates how highly the scouting department values Cristhian. Standing at 6' 3", 180 pounds, the center fielder has all the tools. Contact, power, speed, fielding and throwing are the five tools of a baseball player and Cristhian possesses them all, in addition to switch-hitting. The Nationals could be developing their next homegrown superstar.
