  1.   27    Jakob Voss             R/R     6-9    255    04/20/97        RHS     JR

    "Voss said he will sign with the Angels, who offered him a $50,000 signing bonus. The Angels will also offer to pay for two years of college tuition should professional baseball not work out for him.

    The Angels were also impressed with Voss' size — he's a 6-foot-9 right-hander, clearly the tallest player in the Creighton team picture — and his velocity, which is now up to 90-93 mph. Voss said his fastest pitch was clocked at 96 mph"

    “I got a call from (a member of the organization), and he said, ‘We'd like to take you with the 241st pick; would you do it?' ” Smith said. “I said of course.”

    "Smith said he expects to sign with the Angels this week and report to Tempe, Ariz., where the Angels' rookie-league affiliate, AZL Angels, play. He said he expects to begin his career as a reliever but is open to anything."

    I just want to thank and give God all the glory for blessing me to fulfill my life long dream. I also want to thank my Family, my Girlfriend, all of Teammates, and Coaches for helping me along the way. I want to also thank @Angels for giving me this opportunity! #BeyondBlessed

    "Long before the Angels announced their selection, the Cedar Rapids Jefferson right-handed pitcher had already agreed to forgo college and sign with the team."

    We're on our usually schedule ... will fold the @MLBDraft & July 2 guys into the Top 100 & team Top 30s between the signing deadline & the trade deadline in July. Need to let them sign contracts first!

    Entire Top 30s. We'll add other guys who have improved and move our preseason order all around.

    Replying to @jimcallisMLB @MLBDraft
    Do the entire top 30 guys get updated based on performance or do you just squeeze in the draft/signees?
