Recently acquired utility infielder Deivi Cruz is 29 years old, not 26 as earlier reported. Minor-league infielder Bernabel Castro, thought to be 20, now is believed to be somewhere between 21 and 24. Both players remain in the Dominican Republic as they try to straighten out their paperwork.
Meantime, Puerto Rican shortstop Ramon Vazquez, who definitely is 25, is making some solid early impressions and is solidifying his status as the projected starter.
