I agree that we probably won't sign all three but I looked up the slot value for the Magnifico and Rivera picks and added all the money up and it comes out 590.6k. So a little bit more. Edit: We could go up to about 725k while staying under the 5% luxury tax and not losing a draft pick.
As of right now, the bonus pool calculator says we are 148.4k below our cap. Plus we still need to sign Magnifico and Rivera. I think Farmer is the difference between us having a good draft and a really good draft. You could conceivably stick Farmer in Wisconsin right after he signs which would be awesome for 15th rounder.
I have a feeling that Jimmy was a little too amped up yesterday. He was back in Alabama and it's AA. I think with a good second half of the year he will start getting noticed nationally as far as prospects are concerned, if his stuff is as good as we've heard.
Well I put on a shirt that I describe as the ugliest shirt known to man. I'm determined to make it my lucky brewers shirt. Will post a picture of it if the brewers win.
I agree with scooter on 1-9 but will argue with him on Gagnon. obviously hasnt shown enough for me (i am as excited about him as i was about thornburg last summer). im a big ozuna and fiers fan but i dont who i would put 10. 10a and 10b?
If you discount two of Bucci's appearances in June his ERA for the year is still a very respectable 2.71. I'm a stat nerd so I like to take out the outliers in certain situations.
Hey Geezy, I hope you are still watching Yadiel tonight, he still has at least one more at-bat. edit: Never mind I thought he got a single to go with his double and homer.
After looking at his stats the only thing I can come up with is that they are keeping him down a little longer because he RH/LH splits are fairly drastic.
chickinbrickin I will argue with you on that one. Jungmann has 3 years of success (granted not as dominant as this year's) in the Big 12 and Arnett had one season of decent success in the Big Ten. Not to mention that Arnett's stuff got significantly better he draft-eligible season than in previous ones.
Colby, though both of these guys haven't really been connected with the Brewers at 15, who would you rather take Daniel Norris or Tyler Anderson? (May be a dumb question but I like what I've read about both and the Brewers obviously have a lack of any left-handed pitching prospects)
