Indians agreed to terms with first-round pick INF Francisco Lindor.
Lindor, who was drafted eighth overall, signed for $2.9 million. The Indians believe the 17-year-old has the potential to be an everyday shortstop and top of the order hitter, but he's likely a few years away from making an impact. Tue, Aug 16, 2011 12:29:00 AM

Indians selected high school infielder Francisco Lindor with the eighth pick in the draft.

There was speculation that Lindor might go to the Mariners, but it's Cleveland instead. The 17-year-old is a legitimate shortstop with good speed. Whether he'll develop much in the way of power remains to be seen. The Indians would likely be happy if he just turns out to be a nice .280-batting, top-of-the-order hitter. Don't expect to see him in the majors for five years or so.
