You put [ tweet] the id number of the tweet and then you close it with [/ tweet]

Without the space ofcourse.

 

So take those numbers at the end of the tweet and erase the URL part

 

Thanks!!

I don't think AA will fire Parker after his first draft.

I just hope to god Parker doesn't f*** up next year's deeper draft.

[Chappy]

If this was the intent all along then it was a good move by AA.

Bickford+Tellez in 21 minutes

[theblujay]

So...15 minutes left?

[The_DH]

What are the odds that Bickford refused a physical. Technically that would not be a financial issue.

[Angrioter]

 

700k?

[ReturnOfTheYeti]

Jays sign Brentz for $700k. I think that there will be another signing. I'm betting $1.3m for Tellez

[Angrioter]

yeah

 

[ReturnOfTheYeti]

and now Tellez for $850k!

[imsorry4beatinU]

Rowddddddy!!

[Angrioter]

[ReturnOfTheYeti]

Does that give them an extra $500k for Bickman?

[theblujay]

Wow both under 1mm. Well we have extra money I think

[Angrioter]

Lauer ps

[Caper]

I think they just inked the tough signs.

[theblujay]

This makes me a little happier. Not sure why we didn't just draft them in the 2nd or 3rd round if that's all the money they wanted.

[ReturnOfTheYeti]

I'm betting Bickford is next - that's why they didn't just split the $2m between Brentz and Tellez

1.55 M bro

[Angrioter]

[ReturnOfTheYeti]

Sorry, thought it was $2m. Callis says no dice on Bickford.

[theblujay]

So how much money did we waste?

[ace3113]

Very happy with this news. We got Rowdy and Brentz for saving all that money from rounds 2-10 and at 11 in next years draft we should get an equivalent if not better talent to Bickford (Kolek please).

[Caper]

That's good news. We will have to wait till next year... everyone will be happy when they see who we pick then I'm sure.

 

I'd go a bit into tankolla mode in the second half.... start Stroman and Nolan and who ever else and see if they can stick.

Blue Jays Do Not Expect To Sign First-Rounder Bickford

 

by Tim Dierkes, Jul 11 at 10:36 AM CST

 

The Blue Jays do not expect to sign first-round pick Phil Bickford, GM Alex Anthopoulos told reporters including broadcaster Mike Wilner.

 

Maybe he realized that he picked a high school pitcher 8th overall.

[ace3113]

So at least we got one highly touted impact position player this draft

 

Can't wait to see this guy driving home Barreto in the GCL.

[theblujay]

They got Tellez and Brentz for under 1mm each. Nice

[ace3113]

I wonder if they offered what was left to Tewes or Tanner Cable? There looks to be at least 500-600k left over.
