The Houston Astros are reportedly signing right-handed pitcher Danel Reyes, according to Francys Romero on X. Reyes is an 18-year-old arm out of Cuba with intriguing upside.

The 6-foot-2 right-hander is viewed as an athletic pitcher with a fastball that already reaches 93 MPH. He first emerged as a notable prospect while pitching for Cuba’s 2022 U-15 World Cup team and has continued to draw attention for his projectable frame and arm strength. The deal is currently pending a physical.

Reyes has been battling to sign since 2023 and appears he will have a deal with Houston. Reyes adds another high-upside, projectable arm to the Astros’ system and will further bolster an international signing class that has already featured several notable additions.
