Has a complete list of IFA ever been announced?

A complete list? No. We hope it's because they're still intending on signing more guys. The top remaining prospects are all Cuban. They include 19-year-old RHP Vladimir Gutierrez, 18-year-old CF Yusniel Diaz, 20-year-old 2B-OF Randy Arozarena, 21-year-old RHP Norge Ruiz, 20-year-old OF Eddy Julio Martinez and others.

 

Exact details are still a little sketchy, but the ones that have been announced are:

 

SS Aramis Ademan (21st by MLB, 12th by BA) - $2 million

SS Yonthan Perlaza (15th by MLB, 20th by BA) - $1.2 million

C Miguel Amaya (26th by MLB, 22nd by BA) - $1 million plus $250,000 for school

OF Yonathan Sierra Estiwal (17th by MLB, not ranked by BA) - $2.5 million

OF Kwang-min Kwon- $1.2 million

RHP Yunior Perez - $600,000

 

They had reached an agreement with 3B Christopher Martinez for $1 million but backed out supposedly due to medical reasons.

basically the gm of the giants asserting that they're still in on martinez, which is odd given how widely reported his signing with the cubs was
