We didn't invent it, last year was the first year you could try it, and several teams did. Its still early to judge the 2012 draft, but a lot of people thought it was a clever move.

About Austin Meadows: Rated as the best athlete, 2nd-best pure hitter & best strike zone judgment among high school players in this draft

Welp, now we know why the Royals passed on Meadows.

But hey, you saved some money.

There's obviously 2 sides to the coin. The opposite strategy is to pay overslot for the first few rounds, then sign worthless $1,000 scrubs in the 7th-10th rounds.

Some players drop due to money every year. We'll be able to take any of them.

Meadows > any of those scrubs

Royals need another OF prospect now that they traded Myers and Starling being a bust.

Baseball drafts are a complete crapshoot. There's nothing to get upset about.

[Walrus]

Blue jays also reached. Took a guy ranked 55th overall. Dumbasses
