I have no doubt that if the O's had taken Martin with the #2 pick Boras would hold out for #1 pick money of 8.4m.  Then the O's would have been in a similar situation as the Blue Jays are facing.

The O's had more than 4M more in their pool than the Jays.

Martin went #5 so apparently the O's were not the only team who pass on signing him for #1 money.

That new prospect smell.  He hasn't disappointed us yet.

Martin goes back to Vandy and we take him #1 next year and get him for under slot.

If the O's have the #1 pick next year they would take Rocker IMO.

I am not.    I’m excited about both, but much more about Rutschman.

At this time last year I think many thought Hancock would go number one.  Way too early to even talk about.

If they don't play any games his stock can't drop.

This has been said many times in this thread and answered as many.

If he doesn't sign does it change your mind at all?

It's been said by 100 different people BUT only "answered" by you....

Did Kjersted or Martin use aluminum bats? I haven’t heard and that does make a difference.

Meanwhile, and for the dozenth time, Some people are beating a dead horse. It’s happened, folks. As R2D2 said,”this is happenin’ so just come to peace with it.”

I think the chances of him signing this year will hinge on being on the roster. Probably the same for some other unsigned Picks. If they are not going to play this summer and have an option to go back to college. 
 

To answer your question, I’m interested in the team taking the BPA....Period. They didn’t do that!

What is the point of taking the bpa if he doesn't sign?
