That does not matter as they would have to have the spot to draft him. The yankees can overpay as much as they want at pick 30, it would not effct the royals overpaying at pick 5 to secure their guy so that he signs and does not go to/back to college.
Sure it is possible the overspend at every pick to screw the draft up, but I doubt they would do it as it would cost a fortune.
They could of caught on as much as they wanted. It just meant spending more money. Slotting without salary floor and ceiling just means it benefits the big markets.
