2019 Orioles Draft Tracker

@Luke-OH  I saw you post in Pedersen thread that you're not holding your breath for him to sign. At worst, we'll have $340k savings (Watson signs full slot). Are you wagering that will end up just being savings? I think the team will make offers, but they need to be accepted to be spent.

I think Daschbach might be overslot, Houston Roth is another possibility.

Meaning it takes more that 100k to sign them?  So the 340k could be spread to them on top of the 100k each?

On top of the 125k, yeah.

I'm very happy Adley and Gunnar signed. As for the rest. If you want to play Pro ball sign. If not, go to school or work at McDonalds.

They both will be. Watson too. Then probably Daschbach and Hammer. Maybe Roth.

Here’s an idea, take the money we didn’t spend in last year’s intl signing period, combined with what we don’t spend in this year’s signing period, and just spent the max 105% on this draft. 

Possibly come away with Watson, Dashbach, Roth, Pederson, and Bobby Z. 

I’ll buy the reasons the team gives for why we didn’t sign top guys in the international market this year or spend all of our money. I understand, but then use that money on the only other way to acquire amateur talent. The draft. 

Our draft people have been doing this longer than Koby Perez has had the job. We don’t need upgraded facilities. We don’t need time to build relationships. It’s not a process that we’ve been out of for a decade. Just cold hard cash. 

105% baby

We've signed an UDFA named Christopher Burgess. It might be this person:

There is a pitcher from a lesser known school, but I'm doubting it's that's guy.

Spent money is spent money. The Orioles be not flush. Baby. But I'm with ya! It's not mine!

[weams]

Buy the way. When have the Orioles spent this much on a draft?

I'm pretty certain its the middle georgia guy as well. his stats aren't overwhelming but he's a high OBP catcher
