bmags Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Out of curiosity, when is deadline to sign Rodon, and what typically would he do during the downtime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 I'm not the least bit in favor of "underdrafting" with the 3rd round pick. First of all, Rodon doesn't need to be offered a dime over slot. He has no leverage, and the Sox can pretty much assure him he will hit the active roster no later than September 1. Sox can go 5% over their total allotment without losing future picks. That means they can offer Adams money 10-12 slots higher than where they drafted him without having to go underslot on other picks. Don't waste the third round pick. I'm fine with taking a guy who has 3rd-4th round talent that they are certain will sign for slot or slightly under, but I'm not fine with taking a guy who has 10th-12th round talent and offering him $100K.
