Oviedo HS (FL) RHP R/R 6'04" 181 1992-01-05 HS http://twitter.com/washingnats/status/21227539032 MLB.com, William Ladson The #Nats agreed to terms with right-hander A.J. Cole, the team's fourth-round pick in the 2010 First Player #Draft. ======= Nats, Cole agree to terms The Nationals agreed to terms on a $2 million deal with right-hander A.J. Cole, the Nationals' fourth-round pick in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft, a baseball source has confirmed to MLB.com. The news was first reported by Baseball America. The source went so far as to say that Cole and his family feel the Nationals are a "great fit" for the right-hander. Cole likes the positive direction the team is going in. Team president Stan Kasten, general manager Mike Rizzo and Cole's advisor, Jeff Berry, were not available for comment. Without naming names, Rizzo said Saturday that the club hopes to get deals done with its unsigned draft picks, which include outfielder Bryce Harper, the first overall pick in the draft. I feel confident that we want to sign the guys we want to sign out of the Draft," Rizzo said. "It's a two-way street, and we are certainly doing our part. We are engaged in good dialogue and good communication." Cole comes from Oviedo (Fla.) High School and his fastball is clocked as high as 94 miles per hour. http://therocket.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/08/nats_cole_agree_to_terms.html ============= Nationals Spend Big On Solis, Cole Posted Aug. 15, 2010 1:08 am by Jim Callis The Nationals likely will go down to the midnight deadline Monday to sign No. 1 overall pick Bryce Harper, who's expected to break the record for the largest guarantee ever given to a position player in the draft ($9.5 million by Mark Teixeira from the Rangers in 2001). But Washington already has gotten a huge start on spending by agreeing to terms with fourth-round pick A.J. Cole for $2 million and second-rounder Sammy Solis for $1 million. Cole broke the fourth-round bonus record of $1.5 million set by Athletics catcher Max Stassi a year ago. Cole and Solis received the first two seven-figure bonuses given to 2010 draftees after the supplemental first round. MLB's recommendations for their draft slots were $694,800 for Solis (No. 51 overall) and $258,300 for Cole (No. 116). A righthander from Ovieda (Fla.) High, Cole entered 2010 as a near-lock first-rounder before inconsistency and signability concerns dropped him to the fourth round. At his best, the projectable 6-foot-5, 190-pounder works at 92-93 mph and touches 96 with his fastball. He also flashes a plus curveball and a changeup with late fade. He had committed to Miami. After a herniated disc in his back limited him to two starts in 2009, Solis bounced back to go 9-2, 3.42 with 92 strikeouts in as many innings this spring as a redshirt sophomore at San Diego. The 6-foot-5, 228-pound lefty throws a lively 88-82 mph fastball and quality secondary pitches in his curveball and changeup. -- SCOUTING REPORT 文章代碼(AID): #1C3d66E9 (Nationals) --
