2014 Blue Jays Draft | Signings, Bonuses and Rumors Thread

Predictions for tomorrow, anyone? Exciting day.

 

nobody is signed, that 600.000 is pocketed by Beeston

[Mikeleelop]

any news out there today??

[metafour]

1:25 left until the signing deadline. No hype this year?

 

No hype because there is nothing to really expect. We've signed all of our real top candidates. We are at our limit...yes we can go over and incur taxes, but there is absolutely no guarantee that they plan on doing this (most teams don't). Hopefully we get someone like Isaacs signed, but I dont expect anything.

If Jays sign one more guy will be a plus.

Hoffman, Pimp-Foley, Pentecost, Wells, Thomas, Morgan was great

[metafour]

We have $665,000 to sign someone, we aren't at the limit.

 

We have $600K+ if we choose to go over our budget and incur taxation. We are otherwise at limit.

 

Go back and look at how many teams actually do this. It isn't many. Therefore expecting us to go over is an extremely optimistic view.

That's pretty funny. I don't think he's signing anyway.

Jays are not at their limit and there is talent still unsigned. Jays have paid tax in the past. The draft still remains one of the most efficient ways to add talent. If the Jays are too cash strapped to add a few hundred thousand to their draft budget, then we should stop wondering if they could add a few million at the trade deadline.

It's entirely possible that they don't think these guys are worth what they're asking, but I would like to see one or two more names added before the day is done...

[GD]

Yeah, not surprised.

[Atothe]

I don't understand, why not throw the leftover money at one of these young guys

[Angrioter]

Quinn Carpenter - TJS

Tanner Houck - Very low amount of money

[Angrioter]

Did we sign anyone?

 

Jays FO saved +600K

He signed last week.

 

How many$$?

[SJE32]

Gunnar Heidt signed for $100,00 as per Jim Callis

[GD]

ITT: King can't count

[Mikeleelop]

[GD]

[Abomination]

Me too, I'm dumn.

 

That sucks. Too bad, however it was a very successful draft

 

It's called narrowing down your future career path. Maybe you look at something that requires no higher brain function like politics.

I have thought about going in to politics, but my skeletons outweigh all the other contents of my closet...
