Around SBN: Interview With UMD Athletic Director, Dr. Debbie Yow

The Astros now have signed all but one of their top 26 picks and a total of 35 out of 51 so far. I'm not sure what's the story with 12th rounder Geoffrey Thomas, but he's a high school kid, so maybe they took a flyer on him and missed. He's committed to Southern Miss, which based on this past year's run to the CWS in Omaha, is no slouch of a program.

To me, Keuchel was the last piece that really solidifies this year's draft as a huge success, at least from a securing all of the top priority picks. We'll see how they all pan out. A lot of people thought this kid was a steal in the 7th round and it sounds like we went over slot to get him.

The article says he's going to report to Tri-City, along with most of our other college draftees.
