Cuba’s Moncada cleared to sign with any MLB club

The path was cleared Tuesday for top Cuban prospect Yoan Moncada to negotiate and sign with the Major League club of his choice. Moncada’s availability as a free agent came after Major League Baseball met with the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) for clarification regarding new guidelines for a general license for an unblocked Cuban national, according to a memo sent to MLB clubs.
