Sounds like he's waiting for another offer.


I think he said it would take something weird with Langford, like they find something in his medicals and offer way less than slot. He either takes it and it opens up a couple million, or pulls a Rocker and takes his chances the next year, freeing up $7 million or whatever. All very unlikely, but I think it would take something like that to free up enough money to hit his number.

Other weird things could happen, and I won’t be completely shocked, but the odds are very high he winds up in Baton Rouge.

Johnson getting advised to go to JUCO and become draft eligible again next year is the one that might worry me. Probably won’t happen, but I think it’s not completely out of the question.

Who was that pitcher that signed with LSU out of Parkview Georgia a number of years ago that turned down big MLB money, came to LSU for like a week, left and went to JUCO and was then never heard from again?

If they don’t sign Langford they lose that slot value. They don’t just save it to put toward other players. So that’s not quite going to work. Langford would have to sign significantly below and Jake Brown would have to come down significantly to make ends meet and it work out.
