Teen prospect is 'good' after losing $3-million contract with Cardinals

The Canadian Press: "SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — A teenage Dominican baseball amateur says he is holding up well in his Caribbean homeland after losing a US$3.1-million contract with the St. Louis Cardinals.

Wagner Mateo, a 16-year-old Dominican prospect, was dropped Tuesday by the Cardinals over what the club called 'pre-existing injuries and physical defects.' The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that the left-handed hitting outfielder had vision problems that could jeopardize his career."
