Congrats to Ben & Good Luck to him

Like I said in my other posts on the draft.....Congrats Ben! Johnny R Super Star must be proud!

Minnesota signed him to a contract today, meaning he will bypass Georgia for the pros.

$750,000 signing bonus!

congrats to ben i sure bet Georgia is upset losing him to the draft

$750,000 signing bonus!

 

wow!

Isn't that kinda low for 28th? If I remember correctly, I think Roe signed for a million and he was like 32nd pick or there abouts.

 

Don't get me wrong, I'd take the $750,000!!!!

Signing bonuses change year to year. And the team may give more for a pitcher. Roe is a LHP that can throw up into the 90's. That's why he received so much.

Wow that's a lot of money for an 18 year old! I would love to have that and I am twice the age. What am I talking about I would love that much money at any age. Congrats again to Ben.

I hate to correct you Pat Dad.....but Chaz Roe is a RH pitcher

 

As for why Revere's bonus was less than Roe's however, you hit the nail on the head, he's a pitcher.

Thanks for the correction. Sometimes my brain is totally inept.

Nah, you aren't inept, I just had an advantage...I got to see him pitch from the time he was 11 until he graduated from HS.

Where is Roe now anyway?

Chaz is playing at A Modesto Nuts in Californis. Modesto is in the Rockies farm syastem.

 

Chaz isn't having a good year. He's 1-8 with a 4.32 ERA. He has more K's than any of the others on the Nuts pitching staff, though, with 48. I hope he can turn things around.

PD....chaz has had some strange outings this year, there was a streak of 3 games in May where he gave up 1 hit over 6 innings, 3 hits over 8, 2 hits over 7, only one earned run in all three of those games, and his record in those 3 games was 1-1. He's still figuring it out, I'm sure!
