I forget, what is the penalty for blowing past your allotment? Is it two first rounders taken away? Or is there more?

4th rounder:

 

Ethan Roberts, RHP, Tennessee Tech

 

Not ranked by BA or MLB.com

 

He appears to be a multi-inning reliever, 26 appearances, 1 game started, 71 IP. A good one too, 61 H, 2.41 ERA, 96/20 K/BB, 4 HR

 

Tennessee Tech is in a super regional this weekend.

 

He actually started their Regional clinching game against Ole Miss. Went 7.2 innings.

Nick Dunn is such a Cardinals draft pick. I'd say he'd be their starting second baseman by 2021 if I wasn't so sure Max Schrock was going to be their starting second baseman by next year.

Are we saving for something? Herron is a guy needing TJS and Roberts is an unknown. And a reliever. If these guys are getting slot, I'm surprised.

 

Both Cease and Estrada were 6th-round picks. Maybe this will be the round? D.J. Wilson was 4th round, he's the only other million-dollar superslot I can recall. (Well, obviously Sands and Steele, too...)

Hopefully, the Cubs have saved enough to do their overslot strategy in the 6th round from year's past. It worked when we took Dylan Cease in 14 and last year we took Jeremy Estrada.

 

Not sure what highly rated arm is available and affordable.

The 7-figure bonus overslots under this regime were Underwood in the 2nd round in 2012; Sands (4th), Steele (5th) and Cease (6th) in 2014; Hudson (3rd) and Wilson (4th) in 2015; and Estrada (6th) in 2017.

Hannemann got seven figures as well as a 3rd rounder. 2013 I think?

Let's not mention the other ones that didn't work out...

 

Yeah, I know -- Underwood is still a prospect and has a chance to reach the majors. I'm not high on the other guys on that list.

Yeah, I think he signed for $1 mil or right around there. Yup.

Yes he did. I was trying to limit it to prep guys.
