2020 MLB Draft

[notin]

I thought all of these guys already signed.

Oh yeah. I guess they are free agents and not draft picks. This small draft class has confused me a bit...

The signing of 3rd round pick Blaze Jordan makes this a good draft. He is a first round talent. Red Sox strategy in Round 1 pays off.

That’s what it looks like. Jordan was a fringe first round talent, so if you consider he’d be around #25 or so if signability concerns aren’t taken into account. Consider their first rounder is really a second round talent. Now you’ve gotten first and second round value out of your first and third round picks.

He was the #1 HS prospect for 2021. He reclassed and decided to graduate HS early. I'm not sure he's "fringe first round." If he was signed by the Yanks, you'd be doing backflips over the guy.

Red Sox now have all their picks signed.

@redsoxstats
Looks like the Sox spent $120,100 over their draft pool allotment. I believe their penalty for that is a 75% tax on overage, so $90K.
