2015 DRAFT SIGNING THREAD

[zbhargrove]

When was the last time the Braves didn't sign their 1st rd pick?

I don't know... When was the last time the Astros failed to sign a first rounder before Aiken? Because the Braves haven't had an issue signing first rounders... It could never happen. Gotcha.

Taylor Lewis has signed. $200,000 signing bonus.

I just want to know where Jordan Paroubeck is. Alien abduction?

He's on the Danville roster, just hasn't played yet. I've been watching his Twitter account to see if he gives a reason, but nothing yet.

He was blackballed for training with Bonds.

He was blackballed for training with Bonds.

Or perhaps he did the same "training" regiment to augment his body?

 

[Heyward]

Starting to think Allard may not sign, havent heard anything on him.

Maybe he just goes to college and enters 3 years from now.

I just had to ask didn't i? Oh, well...if it secures Maitan...I'm down!

We can make anagrams with "Kevin Maitan," too.

I'm tired of your anagram-based analysis. You kept championing that kid with all 27 letters in his name even though he could barely hit .200 in A-ball.

It was 1995. Good ol' Scott Boras prevented them from signing erstwhile Cardinals bust (and NFL QB) Chad Hutchinson.

I'm a long-standing member of SABR—Society of Anagram-Based Research. Ivy League quants and math nerds may run baseball now, but the next wave of front-office execs is going to be comprised of underemployed English majors.

Hopefully not jumping the gun with this, but think we may be hearing about an Allard signing very soon. Tweeted a picture from his seat at The Ted on July 1, and retweeted someone's tweet about Chick-Fil-As being everywhere in Georgia 21 hours ago.

Strong hints.

I'm assuming our new guys Cruz and Pache are just too young and unknown and that's why they aren't in our top 30 prospects? Because we gave up our 13 and 24 to get them, I certainly hope they would rank higher than that.
