The Boston Red Sox reportedly won the race to acquire Cuban prospect Yoan Moncada, multiple reports confirmed.

Jesse Sanchez of MLB.com broke the news on Monday morning, reporting that the Red Sox have received commitment from Moncada, who will reportedly sign a $31.5 million deal once a physical is completed.

According to John Heyman of CBS Sports, the Red Sox have already exceeded the bonus pool for international signings so they will have to pay 100 percent tax once the deal is completed, which means that Moncada's total cost for Boston will be $63 million.

Red Sox manager John Farrell was asked about the reported agreement but declined to confirm it to MLB.com, saying that general manager Ben Cherington will be the one to announce if there is an official deal in place.

"I'm aware of the reports and the story that's been broken but there's nothing official to announce," Farrell said. "I know Ben and ownership will be talking to everyone here over the coming days. But as of now, there's really nothing else to say about it."

But while Farrell refused to talk about any deal, David Hastings, Moncada's agent, confirmed to ESPN that they are just waiting for the final contract before making an announcement.

"We're still working out the language; it needs to be agreed to by all parties," Hastings said, referring to the contract to signed by Moncada and the Red Sox. "I'm anticipating we're going to be able to sign."

Hastings added that the Moncada, who started playing in Cuba's Serie Nacional two years ago at the age of 17, could report to the Red Sox as early as Tuesday barring any setback.

The 19-year-old, who posted an impressive .414 on-base percentage and .277 average in two seasons in Cuba, drew the attention of several teams this offseason, including the New York Yankees, Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs, Texas Rangers, San Diego Padres, San Francisco Giants and Tampa Bay Rays before picking the Red Sox.

It remains to be seen, though, what will his position be in Boston since they already have a loaded lineup for next season. Hastings also revealed that he will not be surprised if the 19-year-old infielder will start the season in the minor leagues.

"This is a 19-year-old we're talking about. I would think they would want to put him in with players his own age rather than with big leaguers right off the bat," Hastings said in the ESPN interview. "They probably want him to get acclimated with people his own age, but that's not my call."
