He was linked to Atlanta in the 1st round. Watched him a lot this year. Didn’t see any mound time first couple years. Ran it up to 99 a few time this year. jidady and K26dp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Anthopolous setting the tone for win now. If you hit it also spreads the money out if you got Cusick and company holding down the bullpen for a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted July 12, 2021 Author Share Posted July 12, 2021 Dodd is a senior sign, so they will save pool money on the pick to slide around. They strike quick to get possibly the best college senior in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The belief is the Mets will have to give him top 5 money. 5 hours ago, K26dp said: The 2019 draft was similar, Brett Baty fell to them at 12 due to money concerns despite being considered a top-5 talent. They basically had to punt most of the rest of the first 10 rounds to get get enough pool to pay for it. They're putting their eggs in one basket, but if it hits, it'll hit big.

NFL slot values are a pretty hard cap. You can't really go over that. Thats why nobody holds out anymore. Any negotiations is just over certain language and not necessarily money. MLB is different because they give the teams a budget and it's totally up to them how to spend it. AUTiger7222 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were delayed by first COVID then rainy season. Spain had already graduated, so he elected to work out at the local baseball academy.
