PHU's Kiley signs with Yankees

Former Palm Harbor University pitcher Jason Kiley has signed with the Yankees.

Kiley, a 6-foot-5 right-hander, just finished his senior season at Florida Gulf Coast University, where he left as the program leader in career wins (25). He was drafted by New York Friday in the 25th round and plans to leave Saturday for Single-A Staten Island to start his professional career.

“The Yankees have such a great history in winning championships,” Kiley said. “Of any team to get picked by, the Yankees are probably the best.”
