    Exactly and also especially because Crochett makes very little because he has missed so much time.

    You don't take any hit against your pool if day 3 guys are unsigned. Your pool is based on the first 10 rounds and if any those guys go unassigned, they are subtracted out of the total pool. After that, you get 150k to sign the guys and anything above that goes against your pool based on the 10 rounds. So you can definitely see 11th round and later guys that vastly more talented than guys earlier in your draft class because they are probably higher risk to sign. As mentioned earlier look at Letson and what he is accomplishing as an 11th round pick last year. And he was signed at like 5th round slot money.

    https://futurestarsseries.com/mlb-draft-sleeper-underrated-prospects-farone-kohn-obermueller/ Featured on underrated sleeper post linked above: A fourth-year senior, DeBerry’s a supinator whose game is command, projection, and spin. His best pitch is a low-80s sweeper up to 3000 RPMs, and he commands to the corners of the plate. DeBerry tends to cut his fastball in the low-90s, up to 94 mph, but it has yet to miss bats much, despite favorable command. DeBerry does a good job separating the shapes of his sweeper and curveball, the latter being more of a hammer with sharp downward movement. Pitchers that can legitimately command the baseball are difficult to find, and DeBerry’s lean, athletic frame (6-3/180) and easy mechanics all serve as foundational traits clubs seek in starting pitchers.

    Thank you! Also even if the Brewers don't do any 2 million dollar overslot type deals, they have shown from last year that they will buy high schoolers in the 10-20th rounds. They signed 5 high school pitchers last year in those rounds, generally doing 300-500k deals over the 150k allocated for each.

    I think it is more of the quality of the system. And not necessarily the quality of this draft, but that they are picking super young guys. But I try not to get caught up in the rankings and such. If one of the young guys performs early, they will absolutely skyrocket up the charts. It's also why BPA is such a fallacy to me. Like what does it even mean? I think we should take all stars and hall of famers in the draft. Good strategy! No one knows who the best player will be, especially in baseball where you have massive projections of high schoolers and college kids that have to traverse up multiple leagues just to sniff the big leagues. And that's before you get to injury stuff and such as well. The meaningful part of BPA is not about taking the best player, it's about not forcing a pick at a position because you lack depth at it ie we don't have any third base prospects in the system and our pick is coming up, who do we like the best that's left. It is all about what tiers you place them based on traits, potential projections, signability etc etc. And also where you draft. Like if the Brewers were picking top 10, I don't think you would have seen them go with this strategy again. But picking later I think it is the preferred way to go about it. To me going underslot early so you can go over with guys later is the equivalent of trading down in a NFL draft to get more picks. Get me more pulls on the slot machine and see what shakes out.

    Also like 5 of the 7 Brewers overslot spending last year was 10th round plus.. Not really going to be concerned about the draft until it is completed. Hell our 20th round pick last year was signed over slot and flipped for Hudson, which has worked out nicely. Letson is another overslot guy in the 11th last year that looks killer so far.

    He crashed into the tarp

    Hendriks got 10 mil guaranteed in his 2 year deal while being out this year with TJ, so I would think Woody will get like 12-15 guaranteed.

    Assuming it functions like Metropolis, which I have used in different spots in the country, they will mail you a bill based on your license plate info. If you don't pay it they probably refer you to collections. But where they will really get you is if they detect you going to any of their lots in the future besides even AmFam parking, they will tow or boot your car.

    https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/rule-5-draft "A Rule 5 Draft pick can be placed on the Major League injured list, but he must be active for a minimum of 90 days to avoid being subject to the aforementioned roster restrictions in the next campaign."
  11. mudbutt
    Clearly you don't know Rule 5 draft rules. They closed the loophole of drafting guys and making up injuries to stash them on the 60 IL many years ago.
  12. mudbutt
    Are you thinking the 90 days gets counted during the offseason? It doesn't. He has to be on the 26 man roster which means the Brewers would be playing a man down for 90 days in during the season. After that he could go to the 60 day IL yes.
  13. mudbutt
    No I will go back to the original point of saying carrying a guy on the 26 man roster who can't actually play is stupid.
  14. mudbutt
    No you are not understanding drafting a Rule 5 guy affects both the 26 man and 40 man flexibility. He has to be on the 26 man for 90 active days. And if you are on the 26 man roster, you have to be on the 40 man too.
  15. mudbutt
    It is 90 days DURING the season.
  16. mudbutt
    But he does for the 90 days because he has to be on the active roster. You can't just stash guys on the IL from the Rule 5 draft.
  17. mudbutt
    You think playing a man down on the active MLB roster for three months is not difficult, while also taking up a 40 man roster spot a year early? Dude.
  18. mudbutt
    That is significant amount? And could be a lot more with rising salary and or if he is a real star. Soto would lose 23 million on this year alone. Also not arguing whether or not Chourio should do it.
  19. mudbutt
    He would be making significantly less than he would in arbitration as well if he is any good.
  20. mudbutt
    The Franco and Tatis deals are way bigger than what Chourio is rumored to get so not worried about it, assuming it truly is around 8 years and 80-90 million that the Journal Sentinel is reporting it to be around.
  21. mudbutt
    I don't think the Brewers would have offered Urias the 5 mil plus arbitration he would have cost in the offseason.
