International signing

Just read this so not sure if it is common knowledge but the Pirates have signed a 16 year old pitcher from the Dominican Republic. Jean Carlos Ozoria a RHP with a 88-91 mph fastball with some sink, curve and change. Baseball America says he shows clean actions and good arm strength. They are sticking to their promise of continuing to sign promising players. He will be 17 on March 16 of 2009. His signing bonus was not noted.
