Tigers signed 3B Pedro Martinez Jr. to a minor league contract.
Yes, he’s Pedro Martinez’s son. Yes, that Pedro Martinez. “Pedro Junior” is a 17-year-old third baseman who gets solid reviews on his defense and has some power potential. He’s several years away from being big-league ready, but those who play in deep dynasty leagues can monitor his development. According to Dionisio Soldevila of Grandes en los Deportes, Martinez will receive an $800,000 signing bonus and $300,000 toward a scholarship in the United States.
