The Twins have signed supplemental first-rounder Hudson Boyd for a $1 million bonus, according to industry sources. The slot for that selection, No. 55 overall, was $653,400.
Boyd, a Florida signee, helped Bishop Verot High in Fort Myers, Fla., win the state 3-A championship. He's a physical 6-foot-3, 235-pound righthander whose body and power repertoire earned comparisons to Jonathan Broxton this spring from scouts. His fastball has reached 95-96 mph at times and he has a power curveball that generally sits in the upper 70s.
