The agreement was sealed with a bonus of 3.9 million dollars.\n\nAsigen, a native of Puerto Plata and only 16 years old, is the number two prospect in the international Top 50 of MLB Pipeline. In addition, he stands out as the best-positioned Dominican in his class, which highlights the importance of this acquisition for the organization.\n\nPreviously, Asigen had reached an agreement with the New York Yankees, but decided not to finalize it in December. This opened the way for the Mets to secure his signature, adding to their ranks a player with the potential for immediate impact, according to evaluators.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s number one<\/p><cite>International Listen<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nScouts describe Wandy Asigen as a player who combines hand speed, developing power, great athleticism, and top-notch defense at shortstop. His explosiveness and physical projection place him among the prospects with the greatest development potential in the international class.\n\nHis ability to hit with power from both sides of the plate, along with his defensive range and strong arm, profiles him as a long-term elite shortstop within the Mets system.\n\nWith this signing, the Mets continue to strengthen their minor league system with high-caliber international talent, betting that Asigen will become one of the franchise&#8217;s future stars.\n\nThe $3.9 million investment in Wandy Asigen places him among the highest bonuses in the 2026 class and confirms the Mets&#8217; commitment to compete in the global talent market as well.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mets sign Wandy Asigen, Dominican prospect, with a million-dollar bonus The New York Mets have finalized the signing of Dominican shortstop Wandy Asigen, considered one of the most promising figures in the 2026 international market.
