Boston Red Sox catching prospect Daniel Flores died Wednesday from complications while battling cancer, team president and CEO Sam Kennedy told the Boston Globe. Flores was only 17.
Flores, who grew up in Venezuela, signed with the Red Sox for $3.1 million this summer. According to Baseball America, he was the second best international free agent available at the time of his signing. MLB Pipeline rated Flores as Boston’s fifth best prospect at the end of the 2017 season, and one of baseball’s 10 best catching prospects.
