The Guardians signed Bazzana on Friday, Jim Callis of MLB.com reports.
The first overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft, Bazzana has agreed to a signing bonus of $8.95 million, which is below the $9.25 million No. 2 overall pick Chase Burns received and well under the assigned $10.57 million slot value for the top pick. Bazzana is a lefty-hitting second baseman who could move through the Guardians' minor-league system quickly.
