There were two more signings of Illini players this weekend.

Corey Kimes inked a contract with the Minnesota Twins on Saturday.  Kimes was picked in the 18th round by the Twins.  He’ll report to the Fort Myers (Fla) Miracle in the Florida State League which is a single-A advanced league.

Also, the Florida Marlins signed Chris Pack to a free-agent deal.  He’ll be joining their Gulf Coast League affiliate, the Gulf Coast Marlins in Jupiter, Florida.

This brings the grand total of Illini signings to three so far.  Josh Parr signed with the Daimondbacks last week.

Congrats and good luck, Corey and Chris!!
