CARLOS BELLO "PICKED UP" BY THE YANKEES & NO ONE KNOWS WHO THIS KID IS

Carlos Bello? Who’s that, you ask? Honestly, we’re not entirely sure either. The man is like the international free agent version of Bigfoot—barely a trace of him online, no highlight reels, no grainy photos, not even a TikTok dance. The only person who seems to know anything about Bello is a Twitter account called Yankees Farm, who proclaims him to be “probably in the Yankees’ Top 5-6 kids” among international signings. Not exactly the FBI, but hey, it’s something. 

I'll spend some time getting to the bottom of who this player is, and if this is a legit story, which, I believe it is, but for now, because we can't find anything on Carlos Bello, we will use AI to generate his picture.  

Apparently, Bello, a shortstop in the 2025 class of international free agents, was supposed to join the Astros before his verbal agreement fizzled. Now it looks like he’s Yankee-bound, and we’re just as excited as we are confused. Is he good? We hope so. Does Yankees Farm know what they’re talking about? Let’s hope that too. Either way, Bello’s arrival adds a touch of intrigue to this year’s class.

But wait, there’s more! Word on the street—or at least in Yanks Go Yard—is that the Yankees are gearing up to snag Wandy Asigen, potentially the top prospect in the 2026 class. He’s a shortstop for now, but let’s be real, we all know how these things go: shortstops today, corner outfielders tomorrow. Either way, Wandy has the makings of a star, and the Yankees are already setting their sights on him 14 months out.

So, buckle up, folks. Between Bello and Asigen, the Yankees are playing the long game, and who doesn’t love a little mystery with their prospects?
