The LA Angels signed their first round pick (No. 9 overall) in 2021 to his first contract.
That part wasn’t surprising, but it was incredibly surprising as to how much they signed Sam Bachman for.
Bachman signed for $3,847,500, which is a total steal for the Angels.
The LA Angels are clearly saving money for something greater.
The LA Angels got away with signing Bachman for $3,847,500 when the typical value for a number nine overall pick is $4,949,100.
The Angels must be serious about the 20 pitchers that they took in the MLB draft earlier this month.
