In reply to Adrian. It's really a wait and see, but I understand where you're coming from. From the video I watched of his college appearances, and the stats he put up, I understand why he went 1st round.

Hess is too high. Those college pitchers all look like Joba, high risk high reward pitchers the Yanks can’t fix like Hampton.

In reply to Vincent Wieser. The Yankees must have very good negotiators.

This will be hard to accept but no true change will occur unless Steinbrenner fire B Cashman and his Yes-men or outright sells the team and he will not sell this team.

Why did the ninth round pick (Joe D.) from William & Mary sign for such a small signing bonus ($7K)?

Incredible read and every damn bit of it is true. Let’s post mark this with a milk and cookies basket and send it straight to Boonie’s desk.

Trashcan should have been fired years ago, along with Baboone! Hal is holding onto these Jamoke’s like they have the secret formula for success, when all they have is a propensity for sucking! I remember when the team was bad in the early 90’s nobody went to games, and even when they started to turn things around with Buck, there were still times when the upper deck, and outfield were practically empty!

As of 11:30 A.M., (DST) Wednesday July 24th, the Yankees spent $7,411,850 on their top 10 picks 9all signed except for Gage Ziehl (Round $). They have a pool value of $8,130,400 in total.

They have a remaining amount to spend, before the 5% overage allowance, of $718,550. The slot value for Ziehl is $606,700. So they can go $111,850 over slot to sign him.

The 5% overage is $406,520 (my understanding is that it is 5% of the total original pool value of $8,130,400). They can also use this to sign any undrafted players that would cost above $150,000, or anyone drafted in rounds 11-20 that cost above $150,000.

The 2 toughest signs remaining from outside the top 10 rounds are the 2 kids left to sign – the HS kid from round 20, and the Estrada kid from round 11 (JUCO).

So, we shall see.

In reply to Jason Hurley. Thank you, that has been fixed. I didn't see Cunningham on the transactions list on the MiLB site, but did just see him on the Yankees site. Only Rossi was listed. Why they have different transactions lists is beyond me.
