Rangers have all 5 picks signed 2 weeks after draft

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Texas Rangers have signed all five of their picks from baseball's condensed amateur draft after completing deals with their third- and fifth-round selections.

Texas announced Wednesday the signings of right-hander Tekoah Roby and shortstop Thomas Saggese. Both 18-year-old players were drafted out of high school two weeks ago.

Saggese ($800,000) and Roby ($775,000) each got signing bonuses above slot.

The Rangers signed their other three draft picks last Friday, with Mississippi State second baseman Justin Foscue receiving a $3.25 million signing bonus after being the 14th overall pick. Their other two picks were high school players who got $1.
