Share

According to MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo, the White Sox signed first-round pick Zack Collins on Tuesday. 

Collins will receive a $3,380,600 bonus, which is the full slot value of the No. 10 pick. The White Sox signed No. 26 overall pick Zack Burdi to a full slot value bonus last week, and reportely went over slot to sign sixth-round high schooler Luis Curbelo. 

The University of Miami catcher finished the 2016 season with a .363/.544/.668 slash line with a team-high 16 home runs and more walks (78) than strikeouts (53). The Hurricanes were eliminated from the College World Series on Monday after losing to Arizona and UC-Santa Barbara, though Collins homered against UCSB.

The White Sox have now signed all of their top 10 picks from the 2016 MLB Draft.
