Mississippi SS, can stay at short, hit .312 w/wood in Cape. @MLBDraft ----------------- Net Savings on these picks: $400,900 Still waiting on the official number for DJ Peters.
Thats if hes pushing it. He stays low 90s most of the time. We overdrafted him to save money, for what idk. Outside of Sheffield and Lux I'm really fuckin confused about this draft.
It's because they spent $1M on Dustin May (slot was $590,800) and they need to try to buy their 11th and 12th round picks (Alexy and Ashcraft) out of their college commitments.
I mean but how much should we spend on them? No talent evaluators had them outside of the 5-6th round. Even May was an overspend.
Lux reportedly signing just over slot. http://www.todaysknuckleball.com/in...eyman/tough-times-los-angeles-dodgers-angels/ The Dodgers’ first pick, shortstop Gavin Lux, taken No. 20 overall, a rare first rounder from Wisconsin, is the nephew of Augie Schmidt, 1982 No. 2 overall pick, also from Wisconsin. Lux is expected to sign very soon and get just over the $2.31 million slot for the 20th pick.
Jon Heyman @JonHeyman 59m59 minutes ago Gavin Lux, dodgers 1st rounder, signs for $2.317M. slightly over slot. 4th of 5 Jet Sports clients in top 45 to sign. ------------------- So, officially, less than $1000 over slot.

Chris Cotillo@ChrisCotillo Source: Dodgers in agreement with 1st-rounder (32nd overall) Will Smith for $1.775M. Slot at #32 is #1.9407M. ---------------------------- Signings with amounts announced thus far put them $44,200 under slot. (7 of 12 in first 10 rounds announced so far)
Jim Callis @jimcallisMLB 20m20 minutes ago D.J. Peters got $250k from @Dodgers in 4th rd. @MLBDraft ---------------- Slot was $442,400 (savings of $192,400). So far they are $236,600 under, this doesn't take into account the 5% cushion, which is an addition $466,824. Meaning from where they are now they can go over $703,424 on the remaining players, particularly Sheffield, Ashcraft and Alexy.
