The Baltimore Orioles signed first-rounder Colton Cowser (fifth overall) on Saturday to a contract worth $4.9 million. The Sam Houston State outfielder signed for roughly four-fifths of the slot value of the fifth overall pick ($6.2 million). Cowser was considered one of the top college bats in this season's draft and is known for his power and speed combo. He was a semifinalist for the Golden Spikes Award and was also named the Southland Conference Player of the Year during his junior season. The O's are hoping that his skills will carry over to help their organization in the future.--Connelly Doan - RotoBallerRead More News
