Title: The First Pick in the MLB Draft - Continuing Coverage of Draft Post by: Marshal Dillon on June 08, 2015, 10:06:52 PM Can you say SEC?
Quote Shortstops were a big hit leading off the Major League Baseball draft. The Arizona Diamondbacks selected Vanderbilt slugger Dansby Swanson with the No. 1 pick Monday night, setting off a history-making run at the position. http://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/short-and-sweet-3-shortstops-lead-off-mlb-draft-for-1st-time/ar-BBkQW9W Title: Re: The First Pick in the MLB Draft Post by: Marshal Dillon on June 08, 2015, 10:48:09 PM The first Tide player is 63rd pick in 2nd round by Oakland Athletics, shortstop Mikey White. Last years #63 pick got a $900,000 signing bonus, another Tide player by happenstance. Oakland is notoriously cheap so don't expect that amount. More like $750,000-$800,00.

O's may not be as strong this year but next year will be their 3 or 4 year under Bucky. He will have them playing like they suppose to then. RTR! Title: Re: The First Pick in the MLB Draft - Continuing Coverage of Draft Post by: pmull on June 10, 2015, 07:26:45 AM Alabama signee Mike Nikorak RHP was drafted in the 1st round with the 27th pick. This was expected. CMP said before the draft he was projected a 1st round pick and he would most likely sign. The 27th pick gets about a $2M signing bonus.
