Overall: Yiddi Cappe is a familiar name on the international scene that has missed multiple years of game action to no real fault of his own. He was eligible to sign as part of the 2019 international class but wasn't declared eligible until most teams spent their pool money so he elected to wait until 2020, and then Covid pushed that to 2021 (still 2020 class though). It's not all bad for Cappe as he did get a bonus of around $3 million (either $2.8 or $3.5 according to sources). He has a long, lanky build whose tools standout more in showcase events than games to this point. He projects to average tools across the board, but the frame is very projectable and that can obviously change how his tools project as he fills out. Watching Cappe work in the infield is a treat, and I'd say his defense is his strongest present tool.
