So lets look at the 8th and 9th picks of the 2018 draft, what a cluster f***.
The moral of the story, gamble on a fist round pick not passing the physical rather than a 2 sport athlete.
Braves, would have had a injured first rounder for $2 million something worst case. He rejected that and now they get the same pick this year, and two first round picks (comp round).
A's, if Murray goes to the NFL, will get their $4 plus million back, but, lose their 2018 first round pick and do not get any compensation in 2019.
I guess this all goes to if your team philosophy is go highest upside possible, but with risk, or go safe and get a solid but less upside player..
