[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 722715, member: 322"] Agree Baron probably expects to go. But we'll see. The reason I say that is the first round had more HS players than I expected. So there are less college slots available. Maybe that will change in rounds 2-5 tonight. Specifically, round 1 had about 1/3 (12 of 37) HS players. The attached article has historical HS picks at 1/5 for all 40 rounds or 1/4 for top 10 rounds. [URL]https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/draft-system-has-pushed-teams-to-pick-more-college-players/[/URL] I can only assume that scouts talking with a player and his family will be as positive as possible. These discussions would establish a player's $ number to sign for the teams. In Baron's case, this may be able to be met if there are still college slots available. The flip side is that with more HS players being signed, there is more "risk" that Parada, DeLeo and/or Grissom will be drafted. But I'll stick with Waddell and Parada tonight since I'm stubborn, not because I really know. [/QUOTE]
