Why would an MLB team waste a draft pick on a guy that tweeted he was going to college just 10 minutes ago. Geeze, some of you need therapy.



...because they know his asking price...know what they have to offer...and think they can sign him.

This should be obvious.

He deleted tweet but i assume someone close to him told him too. Even if he is coming no reason to tweet now. He can always say no. Don’t ruin the offer by tweeting. Although he probably already did because it’s out there.

Curious what you edited

I remember you as the one a couple years ago that called me out about saying Cabrera went undrafted b/c someone took a flyer on him late

Your assessment of this situation involving Hampton is on par with your overall opinions on the draft and what can and will happen

Apparently he told those in attendance at his draft party that he is indeed coming to LSU

I hope he does

I’m sure he feels slighted

Hope he puts a chip on his shoulder like Bregman and wears it proudly

It really feels like they are fishing for a more competitive bonus by hinting there is a dollar figure that would convince him to go, but that if you don’t come strong he’s going to college.

This is my most anticipated recruit, ever.

Wow. Hope he does come here.

Do you think he would sign for less than 7 figures? Whoever signs him would have to go over slot value to do it. Is it possible that a team could do it? Sure, we've seen it before. That said, I believe he ends up in Baton Rouge.
