The Colorado Rockies and slugger Charlie Condon are in agreement on a deal that includes a $9.25 million signing bonus, tying the Major League Baseball record for up-front money to a drafted player, sources told ESPN.
Condon, taken with the No. 3 pick in Sunday\'s draft, matches the bonus given to the No. 2 pick, Chase Burns, by Cincinnati on Thursday. The first overall selection, Travis Bazzana, agreed to an $8.95 million bonus with Cleveland this week, according to sources.
