How Acquired

Diego Tornes was the prize signing of the 2025 International Free Agent period. He was considered a unanimous Top 20 international prospect and was signed for right around $2.5M.

What Were Expectations?

Expectations were a bit high for someone that came into the season at 16 years of age. Nobody expected him to burst onto the scene with a 1.000 OPS but he was touted as an extremely polished teenager with an advanced approach and great hit tool to go with explosive bat speed. He also came with defensive praise, as his fantastic speed translated very well in the outfield with scouts calling him a plus defender in center. All that said, despite the age, there were some lofty expectations for someone that was barely old enough to drive a car in the US.
