While the biggest contributions of the class have been as trade pieces, Morejón, Báez and Jorge Oña still in system and looking to move past rocky injury history
The baby among his friends at a baseball academy in Havana, Cuba, Adrián Morejón, with a fastball that touched 99 mph, was also the most valuable when he signed for a franchise-record $11 million as a 16-year-old in July 2016.’ Dominican Republic complex two weeks later on a $7 million deal, Ronald Bolaños signed in August for $2.25 million and Michel Báez followed that December via a $3 million signing bonus.
A good chunk of those investments have helped Preller, the Padres’ president of baseball operations, bolster his big-league team via trades.
Meantime, Morejón sat 94-98 mph while striking out three over two shutout innings with the Missions on Thursday, giving him four perfect innings since shifting from starting games at low Single-A Lake Elsinore to pitching out of the bullpen with San Antonio. The training staff followed and Morejón walked off the mound shortly after; he underwent Tommy John surgery nine days later.
“Obviously that was not the news that anyone wants to receive,” Báez said through Sanchez. “Especially with the team that we’ve had the last couple of years. The roster that we had, we were looking to compete and I wanted to be part of that.”
