That's not exactly a ringing endorsement for a guy projected to go somewhere in the first round. I also downgraded him because his favorite band is Kings of Leon.


Please, the early years of KOL were awesome. Upgrade the guy.

Was anyone asking this for Alex Bregman or Zach Lee?



Pretty sure both families are well off but I'm not sure. Just what I heard and it has nothing to do with race.

With that being said Justin deems signable and you have to question his motive of using wood bats if he's weighing both options seriously.



This is what gives his real intentions away. Nobody uses wood bats in high school unless you obviously want to impress the MLB folks.

Bregman's parents own an NBA D-League team so there wasn't much need to ask about him.

True but MLB teams are less likely to waste a pick these days and tossing over slot money thanks to the new agreement.


7 figures is slot all the way through the 55th pick which is halfway through the 2nd round.

He's a top end college athlete. The allure of hot, slutty cleat chasing college women is also an experience you can't put a price on.

Justin, I hope you are reading this because pussy will be thrown your way left and right. Hot pussy.

if they throw mid 7 figures at him, that's a LOT of money to turn down.



This can still happen but with the draft bonus pools now in place it basically puts a limit on your top 10 picks and how you spread that money around.

A team can still draft Williams in say the 2nd round and throw 1.5 million at him but in turn they would need to go after a couple of other kids knowing they would sign for near nothing.

FTR, I didn't know he was black. You made more of a presumption than I.

What has the effect of the new MLB draft process been on college baseball.

I know the Red Sox can't steal "college locks" by taking them in the 50th and throwing huge money at them anymore.
