Major League Baseball’s international signing period opens today for the 2026 class, which means prospects can officially sign their contracts.

For Baseball America subscribers, we have full breakdowns of the signing classes for all 30 teams, including scouting reports on the top players for each organization, other big names to know and lower-profile players to watch who could be sleepers.

The Rangers have one player who is signing for one of the biggest bonuses in the class ($2.5 million). The layer of talent behind that is even more intriguing, with several position players in the low-to-mid six-figure bonus range trending up over the past year.

Dominican outfielder Elian Rosario ($2.5 million) jumps out for his size, strength and power. It’s a strong build at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds with the look of a player who will continue to get wider and more physical and add to what’s already big raw power for his age, potentially growing into plus or plus-plus raw power when he’s in his prime. Rosario’s power comes with some swing-and-miss that he will have to keep in check, but he does have the patience to draw walks and has the ability to crush mistakes that should lead to a good amount of home runs early on in the lower levels. An outfielder now with experience earlier on at shortstop and third base, Rosario is a tick-above-average runner underway with a body type that suggests he could slow down. He’s likely a corner outfielder long term with an above-average arm that would fit in right field.

Venezuelan outfielder Jesus Chavez, signing for $600,000, is a strong, physical righthanded hitter who was one of the key hitters for Venezuela in 2024 at the U-15 World Cup. Chavez hit .389/.500/.500 in 28 plate appearances at the tournament, ranking second on the team in OPS. Since then, Chavez has continued to show a mature offensive approach, making good swing decisions with strong bat-to-ball skills and a knack for making hard contact. He’s an average runner underway who should slot into an outfield corner.

Santiago Ramirez ($375,000) has emerged as one of the top catchers this year in Venezuela. He has strong, quick hands, a good eye for the strike zone and a knack for hitting in games from the right side of the plate. It’s a promising offensive profile for a catcher, and while he will have to stay on top of his mobility and lateral agility to remain at the position, his strong arm is a weapon behind the plate. 

Righthander Frandel Pineda—a nephew of former major league righthander Michael Pineda who is signing for $350,000—has trended up to become one of the top pitchers this year in the Dominican Republic. He’s a lean, 6-foot-3 pitcher with a loose, easy delivery, combining power stuff with impressive touch and feel for his age to give him starter traits. It’s a power arm up to 96 mph with the physical upside for another velocity jump still to come. Pineda complements his fastball with a hard slider already into the mid 80s that he shows feel to spin and is ahead of his changeup. 

After training mostly as a shortstop while working out for teams, Carlos Doñe ($200,000) from the Dominican Republic has transitioned to center field, but it’s his bat that stands out the most. It’s a loose, fluid stroke from both sides of the plate with fast hands and good timing. Those offensive traits, along with his swing decisions, have led to a strong offensive track record with gap power that should tick up as he fills out his 6-foot frame. He’s a tick above-average runner who’s still learning center field but has the tools that give him a chance to stick there. 

Victor Rodriguez is a smaller, righthanded outfielder from Venezuela who doesn’t jump out right away but does a lot of things well in games. He has a knack for grinding out quality at-bats with good offensive performance and produces hard, quality contact for his size. Rodriguez has a strong arm and good defensive instincts in center field. 

Another Venezuelan catcher the Rangers are signing, Frainker Benitez, has strong catch-and-throw skills. He draws high marks for his baseball IQ and savvy behind the plate to go with excellent contact skills and plate discipline. He’s 5-foot-10 with doubles pop and what should be a hit-over-power game. 

A 6-foot-3, long-limbed hitter, Dominican outfielder Ariel Abreu is a switch-hitter with a patient offensive approach. He has a good sense of the strike zone, but there’s still some rawness as he’s learning to sync up his swing consistently against live pitching. Still, he has the physical upside to grow into more power as he fills out and should fit best in an outfield corner.
