    I don't think an international draft would have that effect. If you look at the domestic draft, bonuses range from ~$8M at pick#1 to ~$1M at pick #60. I think the international talents who sign in the $300k - $6M range would still sign for the same amounts, roughly. So no change for the vast majority of players. What you would see is the really elite talents get capped at something like the #1 pick in the domestic draft. So a few of the star prospects that pop up each year, like Moncada, Yasiel Sierra, or Lazarito, wouldn't get any of thee goofy $30M, $16M deals. It would be weird to see MLB implement a draft where the $$$ was drastically different than the domestic one

    Yeah there's probably a decent chance it happens. I mean, the system they made is obviously broken. Who knows what they'll come up with though. Could always just tweak the system in some way and keep the signing restrictions. They could do a kind of merged draft / free agency where teams have a set budget that they can't go over, players have to register before July 2, but players are free to pick their teams.

    shouldn't be on the internet anyway. It's distracting to those around you.

    He mostly just has bad mechanics. Classic inverted letters up and down his delivery. Pick any letter and I can find it ass up at some point in his motion.

    He's been good for basically his whole career, including 2015.

    minor league deal with SDP weird choice for him. I don't see why he couldn't get a big boy contract somewhere.

    I was actually looking for one the other day. I found this site: http://www.sportsdisplays.net/baseball/posters

    Toronto went over their budget for Vlad Jr. They are already locked out of any big names on next year's market, which starts July 2nd. If they sign Lazarito too then they would be more than 15% over, which means they wouldn't be allowed to sign anyone for more than $300k for the next TWO international market periods. I think signing him makes sense, if they have the money. The extra year of sitting out of the international market shouldn't be a categorical deterrence. If you think he's a better prospect than Vlad Jr., well you've already shown that Vlad is worth sitting out a year so Lazarito must be worth sitting out one more. They probably won't compete for him financially though. CDN dollar and cheap ass corporate shill Shapiro and all that. Dodgers have to be the odds on favourite. They have infinite money and are already about $100M over the limit.

    What's the big appeal of Hamonic? I don't get it. 20 games for Wideman seems like a bit too much. I thought closer to 10.

    The product of us collaborating might be too much for most owners to endure

    Sunday. Any cuts made after Sunday could carry discretionary, unilateral penalties as made by me, a terribly vindictive and sadistic person.

    No they don't. I didn't say they have nobody. They have Kadri and 2 or 3 good prospects.

    Pastnak is so good. I love how Boston can be good for ~6 years and still end up with a player like him, meanwhile the Leafs have been a joke and they struggle to find any useful forwards.

    Kind of funny to me that they're going back to the 1938 logo. The Markham Waxers AAA logo is the same leaf. http://www.alwaysadvertising.ca/hockey/Images/Waxer%20Logo.png Stamkos played for the Waxers. Illuminati confirmed?

    Good front offices don't deal in unproven theories. There are certain biomechnical indicators or patterns that have observable and measurable effects on injury chance. Some of it is publicly available if you do an academic search with keywords like Tommy John and "early trunk rotation", etc.
