I just read he was the 25th pick in the draft. Was it because of signing bonus issues? Or was he just not highly touted? What a steal

Glad my astros took jiovani mier 4 picks ahead of trout!

24 bigger fish ahead of him that just didn't pan out.

because he's from NJ and was strongly committed to East Carolina

I'm joking about the 2nd part

Because scouting isn't an exact science. He was still drafted in the first round as a high school player... so it's not like he wasn't highly touted either.

He was supposedly the top player overall on the Yankees board. They had the 26th pick.

The Angels need to stop fricking around and sign him to a big deal.
