Bo-Yah! I was gonna do a draft case again, but now I'm really super cereal. (no one point out that's not how you stash prospects, it's not the only reason I bust).

Nice that they saved money on Roache that they might be able to push down to Buck Farmer and possibley get one of the best value picks in the late rounds of the draft.

Not a signing yet, but close:


Twins, Buxton Near Agreement
By Ed Creech [June 10, 2012 at 1:31pm CST]
The Twins are close to an agreement with the draft's second overall selection outfielder Byron Buxton, according to Joe Christensen of the Minneapolis Star Tribune. A person close to the negotiations tells Christensen a physical is scheduled to take place tomorrow.

The recommended slot for the second overall pick is $6.2MM. The Astros signed Carlos Correa, taken first overall, for a below slot bonus of $4.8MM on Thursday.

D.J. Davis added to the OP. That makes 10 first-rounders so far, only one week removed from the draft.
