The St. Louis Cardinals signed Aledmys Diaz, who has drawn comparisons to Derek Jeter, over the weekend.

"He walks like him, you can see some of that there," John Mozeliak said.

The Cardinals introduced him on Monday.

"He thinks Derek Jeter is definitely the model ballplayer that everyone should look up to, that he looked up to in the opportunities that he had in Cuba to watch baseball games," said translator Moise Rodriguez, a team employee. "He's a world-renowned baseball player that comes across as somebody that's a leader and somebody that everybody should try to be like."

The Cardinals signed Diaz, 23, to a four-year deal.
