Panamanian shortstop signed in 2008 that hit .308/.367/.470 in the VSL as an 18-year old. He should make his American debut with the GCL Pirates this summer and is worth watching.

July 2010 Update: Like Cayonez, Bishop is a loong way from Pittsburgh but as mentioned above he had a big year in the VSL last summer and now he’s with GCL Bradenton. He hasn’t played terribly well there thus far, but it’s an awfully small sample size. He’s definitely one of Gayo’s most-touted Latin American signings, though, and he’s a bit younger than a guy like Eric Avila so I’m ranking him fairly high if for nothing than a reminder to keep an eye on him.
