The Red Sox announced the signing of first-round pick Kolbrin Vitek today. Vitek, a Ball State second baseman who will convert to center field, signed for $1,359,000.
The 20th overall pick in the draft, Vitek received the same bonus as last year's No. 20 pick, Chad Jenkins of the Blue Jays.

All prior reports (WEEI, BP) have Vitek, a lifelong infielder staying in the infield, either at 3B or 2B. Where are you getting that he's moving to the OF?
