I know what you mean. I hate this draft every year...but this is the one year, with the influx of players that are gonna be coming in, you really can’t be mad at a kid that goes in the first 5 rounds taking the money. Milazzo is good, romo goes first round, comes to school and doesn’t play for 2 years, he’s unanimously an idiot.


If you go first round you’ve got to go pro. You’re going to get one helluva bonus and the club is going to put forth every resource to help you be successful. Can’t blame the kid at all

The bonus is paid out over 3 years though. Not exactly your typical situation.

No, but still, you get it as opposed to coming to school, being a good player but maybe nothing special, then go in the 4th round and never see that kind of money

True but if something happens and he never plays again he’ll still get that money.

But the money isn’t even the biggest part. It’s the extra attention that orgs give to first rounders.

I'm expecting Beck Way to be the first player off the board in round 2 just for shits and giggles

My wife works with Clayton Beeter’s mother. He should go early second round. Pitcher out of TX Tech. He had Tommy John but he supposedly has really good stuff.

There is so little context in that tweet that you can’t make heads or tails of it.

He's also following Zac Veen on twitter as of last night so I'd make little to none in reading between the lines.

JT Ginn off the board, I have to guess he's signing.

Welp, if Henry decides to leave, he’s gone to a good spot to develop pitching

Are you sure about that? I could have sworn I read somewhere that the ML owners decreed if the player is cut prior to three seasons then the remaining bonus installment payments are null and void.
