Reply to "Late signings - which programs impacted the most"

Found some info on LATimes.

The two players the Angels failed to come to an agreement with were right-hander Jesus Valdez of Hueneme High, the team's fifth-round selection, and left-hander Josh Osich of Oregon State, a seventh-round pick. Last year, the Angels signed 16 of their top 17 picks despite having five selections before the second round.

Other first-round picks who signed Monday included Westlake High outfielder Christian Yelich, the No. 23 pick who signed with the Florida Marlins for $1.7 million, and speedy Cal State Fullerton outfielder Gary Brown, who went to the San Francisco Giants with the 24th selection and signed for $1.45 million.

Right-hander Dylan Covey from Pasadena Maranatha High, who was taken with the 14th selection by Milwaukee, was reportedly on the verge of a deal with the Brewers before a blood test determined he has diabetes. He said he will play the University of San Diego.
