Kansas City, MO (June 14, 2012) - The Kansas City Royals
today announced the club has signed second-round draft
choice Sam Selman, the 66th overall selection in the 2012
First-Year Player Draft.
The 21-year-old Selman is a 6-foot-3, 185-pound left-hander
from Vanderbilt University. Selman was 9-3 for the
Commodores in 2012, his junior season, with a 3.55 ERA in
17 games, including 13 starts. The native of Austin,
Texas, where he graduated from St. Andrews High School,
helped lead Vanderbilt to the NCAA Regionals where they
lost to North Carolina State.
The Royals have now signed 28 of the club's 40 selections
from last week's First-Year Player Draft, including all of
the top 11 picks.
