On draft day, Baseball America asked “Where In The World Is Jered Weaver Going? That is the $10.5 million question. No team is claiming him as a possible first-round pick, and there’s no sense that a club is lying in the weeds on him. He and adviser Scott Boras don’t seem to be backing down from a reported desire for Mark Prior money, and he could slide through the entire first round altogether.” Weaver was drafted in the 1st round (12th pick overall) by the Angels in the 2004 Major League Baseball Draft. The Angels scouting director Eddie Bane said he did not know until two minutes before the draft that he’d definitely get the opportunity to choose Weaver. Bane told Baseball America about their scouting, “We did our homework. We started when Jered first got to Long Beach. I watched him in intrasquad games back in January. All our guys had seen him. We didn’t back off because of reports in the paper. We do our stuff privately. We were prepared if he was there at 12 to take him.” However, negotiations did not proceed smoothly. Talks broke down multiple times. Boras and client Weaver held out until the last minutes before the May 2005 deadline, becoming the longest holdout in draft history. Weaver received a $4 million signing bonus, less than the $10.5 million originally sought and also less than a $7–8 million range mentioned in the media just months before signing.

1950. Weaver recorded his first loss on August 24, 2006, when he lost to the Boston Red Sox, despite allowing only one earned run in seven innings pitched, a home run to David Ortiz.
