more than 20 first rounders have not signed this year

Including one Rays first-rounder drafted ahead of Mikie. I think this could be key.

More than likely.

The question is whether or not he'll take less than what he was asking.

why wouldnt it be released?

its not going to be some mega deal like these other guys got. He either takes it, or not. They really dont have much wiggle room given the circumstances.

no shite, really

this draft, teams have been SERIOUSLY overpaying players...the twins signed one of their supplementals 50% more than what they normally make which was slightly over 1 million...i doubt Mikie settles for the 1.2 which is the normal going rate....
