Actually wasn't it a foolish move in and of itself because he had made clear he had no intention of turning pro at that point?

Re: Reds nearing deal with Leake

That was great news about Leake and Boxberger signing.
What are the odds that the Reds could sign any of the following?
16. Chase Fowler C South Forsythe HS
17. Devin Marrerro SS Amer. Heritage HS
18. Stephen Perez SS Gulliver Prep School
20. Matt Valaika 2B USC Santa Barbara
21. Jonathan Reed RHP Memorial HS Ok

Who else of the draft picks should the Reds try to sign?
