Mariners sign top Draft pick Neidert

The slot value for the pick -- 60th overall -- is $1,025,900. Neidert was Seattle's first selection in last week's Draft.

The right-hander out of Peachtree Ridge High School in Lawrenceville, Ga., is considered to have an advanced changeup to go along with a fastball that touches 96 mph.

Neidert was a Perfect Game First-Team All-America this season.
