Has there been any buzz on 13th rounder Jackson Gillis? An interesting case with how little he pitched on a team that just won the CWS.

10th-rder Taylor Floyd signs with @Brewers for $139,700 (pick 313 value = $142,200). Texas Tech RHP, low-slot guy works 88-91 mph with fastball and relies heavily on slider. @MLBDraft

I also curious about Gillis and anyone know if Floyd is a Reliever or Starter.

According to this Tweet 13th round selection Jackson Gillis has signed, “Jackson Gillis has announced he will turn pro, and sign contract with Milwaukee Brewers organization. He is flying out today for meeting.”

Wow Eye black good news thanks for the update .
