June 11, 20196 yr Author OP updated. seems like to date we are over $335k from the rounds 11-40 at this point, while under 670k at this point from senior signs that we know of (though futuresox indicates we are looking at 10k signings for the other 3 senior picks so I imagine this will grow by whatever additional slot there is -30k).

There was a false report out there on Glass.
June 11, 20196 yr Author Yeah nothing on Trenkles Twitter has made it seem like he’s going anywhere but OSU. Krogman seems gettable, and hopefully Glass

We just need to see the bonus amount. If he's like $200K that takes their overage to like $310K. If they are paying for Dalquist with 5th-10th money they could theoretically offer Krogman like almost $300K to sign

High school pitching is, by far, the riskiest asset available in the MLB draft. FG had a publically available value on each prospect and high school pitchers have a horribly high bust rate.

June 11, 20196 yr So that's how the Mets are going to sign those highly touted high schoolers. Impressive.

Could a team sign a guy for a penny? Yeah, but you're playing baseball NOT working with people who are employees at Taco Bell. At least the cheap White Sox gave all their guys 10k.

I guess this kid is just delaying the inevitable. Hopefully he got a useful degree at college or he could be on the Taco Bell track in a couple years anyways.

Are those 3 all expected to sign soon? One would figure that the Sox would want Vaughn and Beard to get some playing time this year.

June 11, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, Jack Parkman said: What are the odds that they can't get Dalquist to sign? 25%? Much less. It's a rarity that anyone in the top 10 rounds doesn't sign. 5% maybe? Either way, Harold has indicated he maybe already signed or is in the process of it. Edited June 11, 20196 yr by DirtySox

June 11, 20196 yr Fangraphs mentioned avg. Top 3 rounds that don’t sign around 3.4 per year. Most coming from 1st round. Dalquist will sign.
