Yankees reach deal with 2021 first-round pick Trey Sweeney
Trey Sweeney is ready to begin his climb toward The Bronx.
The Yankees have agreed to terms with Sweeney, the club’s first-round selection in the 2021 MLB Draft, a source told MLB.com’s Jim Callis on Monday.
New York’s deal with Sweeney will be worth $3 million, per Callis, just under the $3,242,900 slot value for the No. 20 overall pick. The team hasn’t confirmed the agreement or its terms.
Sweeney was one of the best college bats in this year’s Draft class. The 21-year-old shortstop from Eastern Illinois hit .382/.522/.712 with 14 home runs in 48 games this season on his way to being named the Ohio Valley Conference’s Player of the Year.
