#### Comments
"Free agent" can be wikilinked in the first sentence, for the benefit of those unfamiliar with baseball.
Done.
The article seems to somewhat abruptly jump from age 7 to Torreyes being signed by the MLB. Is there any information that can be added here to reduce the gap?
It's difficult to find information on the childhoods of international players, because they tend not to get the "hometown interviews" that American and Canadian players do, but I added another sentence from the MLB.com article.
"On December 23, 2011, the Reds traded Torreyes, Travis Wood, and Dave Sappelt to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for..." Chicago Cubs can be wikilinked here.
Done and removed the WL further down. AWB issue.
"He was the second-youngest man on the roster, older only than Luis Severino," How old was Torreyes at this time?
Clarified and added a source.
