Not at all. $4.2 million left, and the only signings from the first 10 rounds that haven't been announced are Ritchie, McCabe, and Maier. We know Ritchie's already in town and even if he gets the same thing Murphy did there will still be plenty of money left. Murphy being so far below slot...

Enough to likely buy Christian Jackson out of his Georgia State commitment AND have additional money left to make sure Keller signs.

Signing tracker at Battery Power (SB Nation) has Phillips signing for slot - $1,307,300. https://www.batterypower.com/2022/7/19/23194794/atlanta-braves-2022-mlb-draft-pick-signing-tracker-owen-murphy-cole-phillips-jr-ritchie-seth-keller Just spitballing here, but if the other Day 1 guys sign...

Nah - interest rates dropped to their lowest point in two weeks today. LOL.

ASSUMING several things... 1.) Conforto is going to be healthy enough to contribute and they aren't outbid for him. 2.) Yates is going to be healthy enough to be a significant contributor down the stretch. 3.) Alex doesn't go out to chase another SP. Merrifield is probably the perfect fit. He's...

Alternate day appearances starting tomorrow probably means he could conceivably be activated within two weeks. If he gets Monday and Tuesday off and then goes again Wednesday and Friday they may only need to see him go on back-to-back days once (which could come the following Tuesday and Wednesday).

Needed to save that to cover the two tickets, two hotdogs, and two beers his parents will get when they come to the game when all the draftees are introduced.

Doubt that surprised many, but still makes you wonder about the pick. Pretty easy to understand the logic of taking Christian Jackson in the next round - local kid that may be swayed by growing up a Braves fan and may very well pass on college ball for an extra $25K. A little tougher to imagine...

Unfortunately whoever told you "there are no stupid questions" lied.

Would typically assume they're more "adjustable" position-wise as well since SSs tend to be the best overall athletes.

Another trend to follow (as someone mentioned earlier) - ALL of these guys are a bit on the smallish side. Only Cole, Franks, and Mejia are taller than 6'2".

Was just about to mention that.

Not entirely sure about that - Notre Dame is a pretty big deal for Chicago-area people. At least all the ones I've ever met or talked to.

Any discussions surrounding the two are as apples and oranges as they come, and simply a waste of time.

Kinda expect Murphy, Ritchie, Phillips, and Keller to all be over slot - with the amounts potentially split fairly evenly between them so that they'll all sign. McCabe, Franks, Acton, and Keck are probably all under slot guys, meaning any additional money can possibly be spent if there's someone...

As is Keller... https://twitter.com/804Varsity/status/1549141982907437060?s=20&t=NN7KztJdKNZO5MUXhhGrBg

Phillips seems stoked as well... https://twitter.com/Cole_Phillips_/status/1548887098681589760?s=20&t=NN7KztJdKNZO5MUXhhGrBg

From Murphy's Twitter... https://twitter.com/ojmurphy10/status/1549088392368902144?s=20&t=NN7KztJdKNZO5MUXhhGrBg

You mean like game threads and complaining about every single pick in the draft threads???

Without going into deep detail - keeping Freeman and that package would have made Will Smith your Closer for starters.
