[新聞] Royals ink first-round pick Zimmer
Three days after the Royals made him the fifth overall selection in the 2012
Draft, pitcher Kyle Zimmer signed a contract with the team on Thursday. He
received a $3 million signing bonus.
Members of the Royals' front office had indicated since making the pick that
they believed they would quickly reach an agreement with Zimmer, and that's
just what they did.
"We're extremely proud to have him as part of our organization and extremely
proud and happy that he was willing to get out here as quick as he did," said
Royals assistant general manager J.J. Picollo. "It's a great day for us.
We're anxious to get Kyle out and on the field as soon as we can."
Zimmer joins two other recent Kansas City top picks to sign on shortly after
the Draft. In 2004, Billy Butler -- now the team's everyday designated hitter
-- signed four days after being drafted. And in '10, Christian Colon --
currently playing middle infield with Double-A Northwest Arkansas -- signed
by the end of June.
凱力魔簽約金3M....佛心
