No. 3 overall pick Max Clark signs with Tigers

Outfielder Max Clark, the Detroit Tigers' pick at No. 3 overall in last week's draft, has signed his first contract, the team announced on Monday afternoon.

Clark, who was rated No. 22 overall in Baseball America's new top 100, is a prep standout from Franklin, Ind.

In the draft, Clark was selected following the Pittsburgh Pirates' Paul Skenes at No. 1 overall and Dylan Crew going to the Washington Nationals.

"It’s hard to say a high school player has a lengthy track record, but Clark has hit wherever he’s gone facing the best on the showcase circuit," Baseball America writes.
