The Twins have signed third-round pick Corey Williams for $575,000. Williams received the highest bonus of any player after the supplemental first round so far this year, and becomes the first player in the top five rounds to more than double MLB guidelines for his draft slot. The commissioner's office recommends a $254,700 bonus for the No. 117 pick.
A lefthander who helped pitched Vanderbilt to its first-ever College World Series appearance in 2011, Williams is a redshirt sophomore whose fastball peaks at 94 mph.
