Is a legitimate draft risk?

Robbins for sure. I think Goldwater is a risk to some degree. And I think there are a couple pitchers who could be a risk, but I'm not sure who.

So far, so good. If he can fall outside round 3, I like our chances.

I won't be comfortable until he's past 6 or so. He would be a HUGE addition if we pulled it off. He is a two way difference maker.

You guys didn't learn anything from last year about getting excited because a player falls? A team that has money left over because they were signing kids below slot level can swoop in and take someone in the 20th round and pay them like a second rounder.

Yes, they can. It doesn't happen often.

I thought you could only pool your money in the first 10 rounds. I didn't think you could throw top 5 round money at a guy outside the top 10 rounds.

Yea, we lost the pitcher from Memphis last year that way when I thought we would be able to keep him.

Who is our next highest draft risk out of our signees? Goldwater? Ashcroft? Miller? Somebody else?
