Am I allowed to sign this particularly intriguing pitching prospect? If so does he have a 13- or a 0- designation?

In all seriousness this story is awesome, if he makes it do any of our Texas based GMs want to join me on a road trip to check this out?

Fastball in the 80's with a slider he just started throwing for the first time in his life... hey, it's your roster spot.

I watched his first inning of that game. His mechanics were a little clunky and it looked awkward the way he threw right over the top. He was all over the place, but he had some decent velocity for being in his first year throwing in forever and his curve (or maybe it was a slurve?) had alright movement. I do think going through proper development some years back he could have ended up being a solid pitcher.
