If you want to know what it's like for Latin American prospects to try out and sign with major league teams, you'll want to check out Pelotero when it hits the movie screens in July.

Several teenage prospects were followed while information was gathered. But the staff eventually focused on two, one of them Miguel Sano, the Twins' top prospect.

Here's a recent story about the project , complete with a short clip that had me wanting more. And you won't believe who the executive producer is.

Heard today that there might be a follow-up film in the works, as Sano moves through the minors.
