2021 Season Notes

yes, schwellenbach taken 59th by the braves.

Braves obviously liked him, as they were linked to him as a potential 1st round selection.  So happy for him!!

So, if I understand this right, his signing bonus would be $1,185,500. Not bad.  Cubs could have had him three spots earlier.   :ahhhhhhhh

Almost through the Competitive Balance B (compensatory after 2nd Round) and Christo has not been taken. Signing bonuses about to drop below $1 million are a good thing for those of us rooting for Christo to come to play college ball.

Wow, Povich went early, top 100! Congrats Cade!!

Yep, heard his number was north of $1 Mill. More like 1.5. Feeling good about him, we will need him because I'm sure Cade will be taking the 3rd round money.

Is Chase Mason in? Saw lot of articles on him more lately then Christo and ESPN had him in top 250 ranked players.

No Idea what Mason will do. Both him and Christo still on the board through 150 picks. We will see how singable MLB teams think they are.

That is awesome!  Going to be really interesting to see if he comes back.  He's in a great spot leverage-wise with 2 years of eligibility left.

Highly unlikely he comes back. Twins wouldn't have drafted him unless he committed to signing with him. He was projected to go round 6-8 so picking him this early means he's gone.

Exactly. The Twins pick him there because they know he will sign and that they (likely)get him to sign below what the spot is worth (and use left over money in higher slots).

I'm guessing he is gone. Top 100 selection is basically his ceiling. He can sign below slot and sign for more than he would have gotten in rounds 5-10. Way too good to give up, he earned it. He could come back, but 22 y/o guys that aren't throwing upper 90s aren't typically guys selected top 50.

Hopefully Coach Childress son follows suit. He will be a Junior and is a starting Pitcher in College Station with a reasonable amount of SEC success.

He has no relation to Rob. Just share a last name.
