I'm so confused - how are this thread supposed to reach 16+ pages if everyone is signed and there's no speculation on dollar amounts?? Guesstimations on who will slot into the SP top 60, and where, after the deadline. That should do it. 5 Montgomery 10 Tolle 15 Cason 30 Neely 50 Tygart 55 Ehrhard

So I guess Montgomery got $480,000 under slot? Do we have any thoughts as to how/why that happened for a player who was expected to go in the top 10?

I haven't seen it reported anywhere so complete conjecture on my part but maybe his medicals on his leg gave some pause? That's about the only thing that came to mind.

It's pretty common for chalk college picks to get underslot near the top of the draft. When they're offering what slot would be like two picks later there's not really any upside to scaring the team away from drafting you. They don't really have any leverage and it's still a huge chunk of money.

For what its worth, this is the 2nd year in a row the Sox have just rounded down from their first round bonus slot $ to the nearest million ($5M bonus to Montgomery, $4M bonus to Teel). It may just be as simple as the sox believing the best place to create sig savings for their draft pool is in Round 1 and decided to offer at a clean $5M. My guess is they had $5M offered to Montgomery but also had Cam Smith lined up as a backup for the same bonus size...Montogomery shopped around but couldn't significantly beat that figure among the next teams in Round 1 and took the $5M at the finish line, thus the initial reports of our pick being Cam Smith.

Per MLB's draft tracker, Brady Tygart got $300k.
Assuming Futrell got slot, that would leave just $193,280 before the cap +5% threshold.

And per BA's tracker:
Futrell got 250K Brooks 200K and Sprague 155K

I show $11.040,000 spent against cap+5% of $11,047,680 That what I tracked also on a spreadsheet. I'm assuming the excess from underslot values for $150K picks 11-20 doesn't add anything back to the allotment. They cut it fine!

Surely there is some 6'5+ D3 pitcher who fills up the strike zone at 88 willing to sign for $7,680.
