6??3 200 lbs R/R Cypress High School, CA With the third pick overall this year, the Cubs took the best high school bat and arguable the best bat overall in Josh Vitters. This 18 year old Californian had many Cub fans wondering if he would sign or not, as he waited til 20 minutes before the deadline to ink his deal. But really he was never really a threat not to sign despite his commitment to Arizona State University. The reason his signing took so long was due to his adviser (Casey Close) waiting for the second pick, Mike Moustakas, to sign with Kansas City especially in the last hour when it was apparent that Moustakas and Boras would sign. We?fll delve further into the prospect that is Josh Vitters.
