The new section is back, as promised, and if you missed the first issue, check it out here.

A Pittsburgh outfielder is set to make his MLB debut. And a Cuban teenager arrives in the Dominican Republic, quietly becoming one of the most watched names left on the international market.
Let’s get into them.
