How many bonus slots do the Orioles have? Sort of how many licks does it take to get to a Tootsie Roll center.

I cannot answer how many bonus slots the Orioles HAD or have....but according to Mr. Owl, the correct answer for how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll is three.

The strategy this year seems to be to use the bonus slots on the resale market.  International players lose 20% of their value the moment they leave the buscone.

I think the DD has a perpetual international bonus slot generator machine.

Print them...

And there you have it:

• Status: Traded
• Full Name: Brallan Andres Perez
• Age: 21 (January 27, 1996)
• Birthplace: Cartagena, Colombia
• Bats/Throws: R/R Ht: 5' 10" Wt: 165

The man is from Cartegena, Colombia, and was acquired with International Bonus Slot money. So, we can all just stop saying that the O's won't acquire International players with International Bonus Slot money.

 

They will. They will just use an MLB intermediary to do so.

Same deal with that Yankee pitcher they acquired a few days ago.

Quote

The Orioles have acquired minor-league infielder Brallan Perez from the Rangers for the rights to international bonus spending, the teams have announced. The Orioles have assigned Perez to Class A+ Frederick.

The 21-year-old Perez was batting .234/.309/.266 for the Rangers’ Class A+ Down East, although he hit fairly well at the Class A level in 2016 and performed well in a smaller sample at Class A Hickory this season. He’s played mostly second base in 2017, although he’s also played shortstop and third. He signed with the Rangers out of Colombia in 2012.

Don't you mean Tootsie Pop center?  These lollipops are filled with chocolate.  Tootsie Rolls are solid, soft, chewy chocolate right?

You can tell he's a non-prospect because Texas had him at AAA for a couple games as an injury fill in.
