  • We have signed EVERYONE we should have except 15th Rd pick

    We are OVER pool by $345,000 which means we have to pay a 75% tax on it. In other words the ownership had to pay $650,000. In years past this has NEVER happened

      Good to see they are willing to pay for talent. Hopefully that bodes well for the International Signing period.

        We have 6 million to spend. Sandy Gaston Top 15 Prospect is ONLY name I have heard but I dont have BA anymore so no clue. We might have more or maybe they save the cash for the Mesa brothers?

        One thing of note. We currently have about 20 draft picks NOT on any roster which means alot of decisions will be coming in the next week or 2

          That is very interesting.

          I mean, they really are doing a lot of things right on the MLB level. Hopefully this eventually translates into some fan confidence in a year or two.

          Sign Gaston and have an article about that and having to pay a draft tax, and maybe that starts inching the needle to competency. Of course people will probably just be upset Dietrich and Barraclough are traded.
