Michel Inoa has been awarded a US$4.25 million signing bonus after agreeing to terms with the Oakland Athletics. The bonus is the highest ever awarded to a Dominican MLB prospect. Willy Mo Pena (US$2.44 million) and Irvin Joel (US$2.25 million) held the previous highs. Some bloggers are saying that Inoa's bonus could be the highest among Latin American players.
