Giants Land Sandwich Pick Crick



The Giants have signed supplemental first-round pick Kyle Crick to a $900,000 bonus. MLB's recommendation for his No. 49 draft slot was $717,300.

A product of Sherman (Texas) HS, Crick was mostly a first baseman until he started throwing a 94-mph fastball on the showcase circuit after his junior season. He pitched consistently in the low 90s and touched 97 this spring, and he also flashes a plus curveball and slider. The 6-foot-3, 225-pounder needs more command and polish, not a surprise given his inexperience on the mound. He had committed to Texas Christian.
