When it comes to scouting internationally, there is nobody better than Ray Poitevint. After quitting a high-paying sales job in 1961 to become a scout for the Baltimore Orioles, Poitevint has spent many years with multiple teams finding some of the best talent around the globe. In Baltimore, his most notable find came in the form of Dennis Martinez, the pitcher who spent 22 years in the league that included 4 All-Star selections and seven 15-win seasons.
