The pick has a slotted value of $333,500, according to MLB.com.<\/p>\n
Grinsell (9-3, 3.01 ERA) was a third-team All-American selection by NCBWA, Perfect Game and ABCA\/Rawlings.<\/p>\n
He had 101 strikeouts in 98 2\/3 innings while holding opposing hitters to a .205 average this season. In Big Ten games, the left-hander led the conference in wins (seven), ERA (1.36), batting average against (.167) and WHIP (0.86) and was second in strikeouts (70).<\/p>\n
