Overview
Sosa is the nephew of former MLB star Sammy Sosa. Given the $10,000 bonus — initially misreported at MLB.com as $100,000 — he appears to be a long shot prospect.
2024
In his DSL debut, Sosa was overmatched. He batted 111/200/148 and struck out in over half his at-bats. He played mostly first and right field, and didn’t see any time elsewhere in the infield.
