So much for that...

Jim Callis of Baseball America reports that the Marlins have signed first-round LHP Andrew Heaney to a $2.6 million bonus.

Callis and others reported Thursday that Heaney would not sign, but that's obviously changed. The $2.6 million is just below the $2.8 million recommended slot for the No. 9 overall pick. Heaney doesn't have a ton of upside but is viewed as arguably the most MLB-ready arm in the draft, so he'll be on the fast track.
