I spent months . . . well, not literally . . . wondering where Aguero came from after he appeared on the State College roster at the start of the 2008 season. At the same time, I was wondering what happened to Samuel Vasquez, who put up very good numbers in the DSL in 2007 and was invited to spring training, yet never appeared on any roster anywhere. The answer is that they're the same guy. The unfortunate part is that he's four years older as Aguero than he was as Vasquez, who at a purported age of 19 this year looked like he might be a real prospect. The sudden increase in his age probably accounts for him being assigned to State College rather than the GCL. I guess Agegate hasn't run its course quite yet.
