Let’s catch up on any draft signing news we didn’t cover already …
- The Nationals have agreed to terms with fifth-rounder Mitchell Parker, per Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post (via Twitter). The bonus agreement isn’t known; his choice came with a slot value of $346,800. Parker was the last of four college hurlers plucked by the Nats in this summer’s truncated draft. This is the third time Parker has been drafted; it sounds as if he’s definitely planning on going the professional route this time around.
- Angels fifth-rounder Adam Seminaris has agreed to terms, Robert Murray reports on Twitter. He was nabbed with the 141st overall pick, which featured a $390,400 bonus allocation, though Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com tweets he’ll fall well short of that with a sum of $140K. Seminaris, a Long Beach State product, produced big strikeout numbers in college without overwhelming arm speed.
Nice to snag the Dirtbag (local affectionate term for Long Beach team).
for sure. loved to watch him at lb!
Not sure I’d really say Seminaris produced “big strikeout numbers” other than his senior year which was only 22 IP he didn’t exactly K all that many batters/9
do Ks matter?? dude can flat pitch with 3+pitches. came from one of the toughest college schedual out there
another dirtbag. I’m all in. watched all his games this year, very exciting!!
