The White Sox have reportedly landed the top two international players they've been targeting for months.
Outfielder Franklin Reyes and shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr., both from the Dominican Republic, have been signed by the White Sox, according to MLB.com.
Reyes, 16, is ranked No. 30 among the international players available in this class. He's known for his power and above-average outfield arm. He signed for a $1.5 million bonus.

Tatis, who is currently a shortstop, could see a switch to second or third base in the future. He's a solid defensive player with a nice swing, and is the son of former major-leaguer Fernando Tatis.
Tatis is ranked No. 27 by MLB.com and reportedly signed for an $825,000 bonus.
