First Round Pick

I'm blogging up a storm today (hotel rooms can be boring at times).

I noticed this in the latest Prospects Chat with Jim Callis of Baseball America:

Raoul (Tucson, AZ): Jim, you didn't include Barret Loux in your list of first round picks that might not sign. Will the Diamondbacks walk away from the guy with a bum shoulder and take the 7th pick next year or will they sign him to a reduced price?

Jim Callis: I should have mentioned the possibility of Loux. Could go either way on that one. The Diamondbacks didn't want to go over slot, which is why they took Loux, so they may be more inclined to sign him at a discount than have to haggle with an unprotected pick next year.


Just felt that it was relevant event to be blog-worthy.
