For a college junior picked at #34 or whatever, the pool amount is $1.878m. No way he wants to risk $2 million to go back as a senior.

He signed today, but I haven't heard a bonus amount yet.

*Edit* He signed for $2m, which is exactly what I pegged him for, so I am pretty happy with that number. They signed him teammate as well, Austin Sexton.

11th round pick John Kilichowski and Austin Sexton signed today as well.

Kilichowski has legitimate talent, though his results were subpar. I will be pretty interested to see what he gets in bonus money.

Zac Gallen is going to go over slot as well. Connor Jones may go 100k or so over slot as well.

Lot of this going well. Glad to see Hudson sign for not much over slot. He has a very good chance to be the first from this class to reach the majors, especially if it's as a reliever (not that I want him to be a reliever).
