Sucks for Rocker. But hopefully he comes back, makes good money via NLI, wins another CWS championship, and gets drafted even higher next year.

Leiter signed. ESPN reported that his bonus was over $7.9 million. Slot value was just under $7.8M.

Or if he needs surgery, get it done and maybe he is ready to pitch by baseball season (or before the end of the season).

A billionaire MLB owner can't do better than that? And people griped about the former Clippers NBA owner being a tightwad. My guess is that G League basketball players don't have 9 guys sharing an apartment or living off unhealthy fast food. Billionaires don’t get rich wasting money on things like ...

Luke Murphy just signed with the Angels so he will be in their farm system. But I guess getting a $750K signing bonus alleviates the problem somewhat…

I live in Syracuse, which is the Mets AAA minor team. Anybody have any idea where and when he will start pitching professionally https://metsmerizedonline.com/2021/07/source-kumar-rocker-not-expected-to-pitch-in-2021.html/ Sources tell MetsMerized’s Jack Ramsey that 10th overall selection Kumar Roc...

$$$

Just a (smart) negotiating ploy, probably. But I like to cling to that tiny ray of hope…

I wonder how far Leiter would go to threaten to return to Vandy to get his money. Not that I think there’s really any chance he won’t sign.

I was really surprised how far below slot Davis accepted to sign.

Baez didn’t get drafted on day 1. It would be nice to get him on campus. Baez just went in the second round at # 52. Slot value $1.4 million. Gonna be tough. Yep. But hopefully he could be convinced that in 2 years he could get at least double that. Or maybe the Cardinals have problems with having ...

Depends on who gets drafted where. There are still 19 rounds left to go…

As a longtime Vandy fan who still follows the team closely, I could never have imagined I’d ever see the day that I couldn’t even tell you who half the players on the team were. Yet here we are…

Nice to get a little good news for the upcoming season

He is actually a 2022 commit, so he won’t be eligible until next year. And yeah, odds are he will get drafted early and go straight to the pros…

Calling out racism is bad for job security in Mississippi…

I thought it was a Chinese plot to keep Vanderbilt from repeating in 2020…
