1st Round Draft Pick Signed!

Compared to last year, this pick didn't wait for the last second. Chris Reed, the local kid, signed a contract days before the August 15, 2011, 9:01 PM PDT deadline.

From Dodgers.com:


Reed, a 6-foot-4, 190-pound junior, earned an honorable mention All-Pac-10 selection and went 6-2 with a 2.56 ERA in 29 games (one start) last season for the Cardinal, who advanced as far as the NCAA Super Regional. In 2011, the 21-year-old limited opposing hitters to a .211 batting average with 52 strikeouts and allowed just one home run in 52.2 innings. As a reliever, Reed posted a 1.87 ERA and ranked third in the Pac-10 with nine saves in 11 attempts this season.
The Cleveland High School (Reseda) graduate was rated as the top prospect and earned an All-Star selection in the Atlantic Collegiate Summer League in 2010, posting a 1.09 ERA with 39 strikeouts in 33.0 innings.
