The Dodgers might not be done turning to Cuba to bring in reinforcements.

After signing Cuban third baseman Hector Olivera recently for $62.5 million over six years, and adding him to previous Cuban imports in pitcher Onelki Garcia, second baseman Alex Guerrero and outfielder Yasiel Puig, there is growing belief they are now targeting hard-throwing Cuban right-hander Yadier Alvarez.

According to a report by Jon Heyman of cbssports.com, the Dodgers have extensively scouted Alvarez, with team president Andrew Friedman traveling to see him in the Dominican Republic, where Alvarez has established residency.

According to Heyman’s report, Alvarez, throws 94-97 mph but has hit 99. Alvarez is petitioning MLB to allow him to sign in this signing period rather than wait until July 2, although there is no word yet on whether his petition will be approved.

If it is, the Dodgers might soon be adding a young arm to their organization. According to a recent story by Yahoo Sports, Alvarez is a 6-foot-3, 175-pound 18-year-old who burst onto the international prospect scene upon blowing scouts away in the Dominican Republic.

The Dodgers, it seems, have taken notice.
