A quick perusal of Mike Siani’s professional baseball career shows that he was a 4th round pick of the Cincinnati Reds back in 2018. Aside from Paul O’Neill back in 1981, there have not been many ‘hits’ with 4th round picks for the Reds, with Sam LeCure and his 2.6 career bWAR the lone real exception in that time.
That said, Siani was no average 4th round pick. The $2 million signing bonus it took to get him to turn pro indicated a) how valued he was at the time and b) how tough it was going to be to get him to forego his commitment to the University of Virginia, and he held the kind of talent at that time that had him potentially getting selected much earlier.
