Rounds 11-40 (guhhhhh) start at noon today.

Day 3 will be moderately interesting for some of the signability selections that arise from potential leftover cap money.

From BA:

 

The vast majority of the top players left are high school prospects who have fallen because of signability concerns. Many of them will likely be taken in rounds 11-20 on day three. The format of the draft under the new collective bargaining agreement gives teams plenty of reasons to wait until the 11th round and beyond to take these players. If they are drafted in the top 10 rounds and they opt to head to college, the team loses from its signing pool the money that had been allocated for their pick. Those restrictions do not apply after the 10th round, so while failing to sign the last pick of the 10th round would cost the drafting team $135,500 from its bonus pool, failing to sign an 11th round pick will cost the team nothing.

BA BPA for Day 3:

I hope Ball doesn't turn out to be a Dirtbag.

Mariners just took Kyle Seagar's little brother, listed as 1B/3B. That's pretty cool.

I wonder if we're just going to go pitching heavy.

The lady that calls the Dodgers picks every year sounds really annoying. Just wanted to get that off my chest.

 

Tyler Shryock...bad name

As a team, CSU-B hit 6 homers

Sicnarf Loopstock is a pretty f***ing awesome name.

Well, Matt Ball seems excited. It's been like 25 minutes and he's already changed his Twitter handle to "@MattBall_ChiSox", updated his bio to say White Sox, has the Sox logo as his avatar, and is tweeting/retweeting/favoriting people congratulating him. I think he'll sign. LOL.

Oregon St. is still alive in NCAA Tournament so those that want to watch him will be able to.

Let's just change the name of the team to the Chicago Tyler's.

Tigers took Verlander's brother.

Detroit just drafted Verlander's little brother, a RF.

 

Orioles selected Yaz's grandson, Mike, a RF as well.

If Hawk was still the GM, Yaz's grandson would have been our first pick
