Yohanatan Alcantara signed!!
135 lb Dominican shortstop- that’s old school DR baseball.
Cuban?
My phone won’t go to the instagram link- is it not this guy? https://www.milb.com/player/jonathan-alcantara-834886
Maybe old middle school DR baseball.
This is the guy. Signed yesterday, per milb.com. Dominican.
I have no trouble going to the instagram link in the earlier post - but the account is set to private, so there's no point in going there.
Looks like one more signing

A few weeks later, we're up to 41 signings.
Edit (7/4) - 43 signings;
RHP Markos Sanchez, 19 years old

reached an agreement with Phillies for 2026
Holy moly, his stuff looks really good. I don't know how old he is, but even if he was about to sign as an 18 year old that would be really good stuff.
That instagram account needs the secret handshake emoji rather than the signing emoji.
Where is the indication that he committed to the Phillies? They show a bunch of player profiles with the "signed" emoji, i feel like i must be missing a click to show more detail.
Michael Nieto, 18-year-old Panamanian infielder.

That's 45 officially listed as signed (not including José Romero, whose name has not yet appeared on the mlb/milb transactions lists).
Romero is explicitly listed as a 2026 supposed signing so he would not be on any sort of transaction list.
It was on the academies insta story the other day.
Signed 18 year old INF Michael Nieto
Signed RHP Anthony Hiraldo on 7/16, which puts them at 46 signees.
