Pirates have agreed to terms with first-round pick OF Austin Meadows.
The agreement has been passed along by Travis Sawchik of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, who says Meadows will receive near the $3.0296 million slot value for the No. 9 pick. Meadows is a high-risk, high-reward high school outfielder that will take a while to develop but could wind up being a star. Jun 27 - 8:12 PM

Austin Meadows - OF - Pirates

Pirates selected high school outfielder Austin Meadows with the ninth pick in the draft.

Meadows was projected to go as high as fifth and most didn't see him lasting past the Red Sox with the seventh pick. He probably won't last in center, and that's especially a given with Andrew McCutchen now ahead of him. But he should prove to be quite an asset defensively in right field, and he possesses big-time power potential. He's a high risk kind of guy, but he's also one with the ability to end up as the best player from this year's draft.
