I believe I read that he's attending Texas A&M and is a junior!

 

Thanks.

Samson the 34th rounder signed and has played the last two or three weeks for Mesa.

 

According to a recent Ask BA column, Jim Callis noted that Samson got a $155,000 bonus, as did Cliff Andersen (OF, 9th rounder). Kevin Kreier (RHP, 20th rounder) got a $100,000 bonus. That means that the Cubs signed 7 guys with a bonus of $100,000 or greater (Colvin, Samardzija, Andersen, Huseby, Rundle, Kreier, Samson).

Found a few bonus figures for 2006 DFE signings:

 

3B Jovan Rosa (22nd round) got a $180,000 bonus - that's 5th round money in 2006 and 4th round money this year.

RHP Jordan Latham (29th round) got $100,000

I believe that would be bottom of 4th or top 5th round, because Barney received 222 at the top of the 4th round this yr, ^ refering to Rosa I meant.
