Former Cuban National Series pitcher Jonathan Carbó is set to take part in a showcase this Wednesday, September 25, at the Yuan Pino Academy in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Known for his impressive fastball that reaches 94 miles per hour, Carbó has dedicated significant effort to his physical development, increasing his weight and enhancing his performance on the mound, according to journalist Francys Romero on Facebook.
The native of Isla de la Juventud, who is now a free agent, is in an advantageous position for Major League Baseball organizations. His six seasons of experience in Cuba and his age of 25 mean that signing him would not impact the budget limits of the teams. This undoubtedly makes him an appealing option for franchises looking to add talent without financial constraints.
The upcoming event will be crucial in showcasing his progress and capturing the attention of the scouts in attendance.
