Gurriel signed a minor-league contract with Atlanta on Saturday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Scouting Report
Has supreme bat speed and outstanding hands, which enable him to hit for a good average (and supply a fair amount of power). Is also solid at the hot corner. After years of starring in his native Cuba, can he adjust to life as a big-league star in North America at an advanced age? He will have to overcome obstacles.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, pure hitter.
