Spotrac finally updated their Rounds 11-20 slot values, so it’s easier to see exactly what teams have left.

Cards have signed 18/19 players.
They can only offer Cam Johnson $300,355.
I feel confident saying he’s gonna be a Tiger.

According to their draft tracker page, the Rangers have signed all 8 of their Top 10 round picks.
They can only offer Jake Brown $263,665.
I feel confident saying he’s gonna be a Tiger.

Twins will be interesting.
They still have their Top 2 picks left to sign (combined $9.6 mil slot) so they could conceivably save a ton of money to spend on Larson or the high school kid they took in the 19th.
Definitely something to pay attention to.

So just to throw out realistic hypotheticals for the Twins if they sign Jenkins for 7 mil (slightly under slot) and Soto for 2.2 mil (slightly under slot) they will have $425,600 left to play with not going to the 5% over. 5% over the bonus pool they were allotted would be $717,280. So if they wanted to go 5% over pool they could realistically have $1,142,880 to play with. Not sure how often in the past the Twins go over the 5%.

Like you said, they will be choosing between the 19th round HS kid and Larson in the 20th round.
