That 20K signing bonus next year would be the tits.


The discussion would be, if you add the $20k next year plus this years’s slot of $285k, could you offer him $350k in NIL to stay, making the money alone a wash?

Clearly more than money goes into the decision/discussion.
Too many moving parts to answer right now. Does he want to start pro baseball? Can whomever drafts him offer double slot?

I don't follow this like most of y'all do, but question: Has Bear told them a $ that they can't meet at this time & thus he is not drafted?

There’s a lot of names still not drafted. I think we could have our double CF again in the OF and jones is the ? Mark. NIL may get him back. 300-400k NIL I think does it and we have our 1b and power bat back

He's in a category of players that just isn't very highly valued.

Glove first CFs are absolutely thought of more highly than R/R first basemen, this isn't debateable.

Love to see these 4 come back.

I think LSU fans overrate his glove too

Stanfield is a decent enough college player. I love the guy as a person. Seriously, he's one of the highest character guys we've ever had in the program. But he flat out does not have tools that project professionally

Standield is a lot more valuable at LSU than in the pros. He’s a minor league journeyman man that may sniff mlb as a bench bat/runner and/or defensive replacement. That’s why I hope he comes back along with the bear

I do agree, but if that is the case, unless someone overspends, it seems like he could get a decent number through NIL that'll compare and make a last go at LSU.

Or is it just that he wants to start his MLB clock?
