Very good to hear. The site I linked earlier today has 16 guys signing so far, not including other like Tuschak that may have agreed to terms but haven’t signed yet.

hope he is good.
It will also be interesting to see how much of a difference there is in the type of kids signed. That is, more fundamentally sound, all around ball players, not just a kid with some flashy tool, or one that is all bat no glove.

That’s a great point. It seemed like a lot of the earlier picks were HS kids, so they may not have the same polish or sound fundamentals as college kids.
