Alvaro Gonzalez was linked to DET by Badler. Ranked 39. Says he has a big arm but makes high effort throws. Funky hitting mechanics. Not a lot of power expected. Devan FinkVerified account @devanfink 2h2 hours ago More Source confirms @jessesanchezmlb: Alvaro Gonzalez has signed with the Tigers--not the Red Sox--for the $1 million bonus I reported. Wonder if the Sox for a period felt they could get more money to top this, but the trade didn't go through.

Why? It's the first. Hit him up again on the 15th.

Well its trying to do two things, hence the unhappiness. If you are trying to cap total spending, but don't care about allocation, you come up with a cap, like on the J2. One kid can get 90%, and all others peanuts.
Under that system, for the draft, you can not punish teams for not signing players. Keep the same cap.
But for the draft they also want to keep individual salaries down. So they take away from the cap if you don't sign a player. It creates the stupid result that teams draft $10K players early just to save space. Just eliminate the punishment so teams don't have to go through the charade of picking Wren's kid early. Give them a fixed cap, just like J2, and let them decide whether to waste picks and allocate most to a single player, or spread it around.

To be fair, the rules today prevent the manipulation that Theo creatively used (buying compensation picks, getting two picks - round and sandwich for losing FA, while only giving up one for signing), plus there was no cap, so he could encourage fallers like Hansen and Bard (and later round "tough signs"). All of that is gone now adays. You get your first round pick, and after that hope that on an even playing field you can actually find a player based on scouting.

Can you guess which team has drafted the most WAR since 2000? The GM of the Cubs, or the assistant for the Blue ur Jays?

re: the above post fullcount.weei.com/Groome pitched in a game for the first time since suffering the injury on Tuesday when he appeared in an extended spring training game on the stadium field at JetBlue Park. The left-hander went two innings and all the reports were good. Since he missed so much time, the organization will keep him on an innings progression in Fort Myers before they consider promoting him back to Greenville.

Is Acosta dropping due to any reports, or a "rising" of other prospects? It would seem, given the odd assemblage of fillers from 25-60, that his potential would merit remaining on the radar.

Thank goodness Xander can field or he'd have to look over his shoulder at our power hitting ss prospect.

Not having watched much Sox this year so far, Moreland has an 800 OPS in a reduced slugging OPS era. Isn't that at least decent?

It's been so long due to our sanctions. Remind me again when the July 2 signing period starts? re: best defensive catcher, ever.... Cool, we got the best defensive catcher ever, a young Barry Bonds and Soriano with better hands. All that's left is the next Pedro/Papi and another Ted Williams. Already got the next Pedro mlb.mlb.com/mlb/prospects/watch/y2014/#list=intToo soon?

I hope the Sox see or know something I'm not seeing. Definitely a Funke trade. There must be something beneath the surface that only an analyst could see.

Josh Tobias, a 2015 college senior 10th round pick? Potential utility guy? Hardly the high (any?) ceiling low minors kind of kid I was hoping for. Boy, Dombrowski really does hate prospects.

I think it is telling that my first reaction is that DD will be overpaying on prospects. He just seems to care little about preserving them/winning a trade when he makes up his mind on filling a need. I hope I'm wrong.

The NL is not the same as the AL. As Pomeranz Dombrowski is learning the hard way since coming to the Sox.

This just reminds me how awful the Lackey deal was literally getting negative value for a good SP. Cost controlled negative value, though.
