Report: Astros and Jacob Nix close to agreement

Tyler Stafford is reporting a couple of things related to 5th Round pick Jacob Nix. I'll let him take it from here:

It is looking more and more likely that the Astros and 5th round pick Jacob Nix are close to reaching a deal. Nix was a hard commit to UCLA.

The slot value of the Astros 5th round pick was right over $350k. I expect Nix's deal to be upwards of $1,000,000.
