After getting the first overall pick signed, the Pittsburgh Pirates are starting to see their bonus pool free up, but who is left to spend it on?
None of those guys excite me, but what the heck. Might as well throw some dollars at them. At least Meuth has SOME potential.
My issue is looking around the league and seeing deals other players are signing. Players that seem clearly better drafted around same time/after some of these kids. You could have gotten other players while still not spending a lot.
I know next to nothing, and I thought it was the strangest draft I'd seen in a while. I'm playing checkers while they're playing chess!
At least the hope is the Pirates are playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. Or else this draft may not work out beyond Skenes.
Your lips to God's ears, Murph. My faith is in short supply!
