So, are Cuvet, Jimenez and Shin the three we're sweating out these last two rounds?
Teams can always surprise, but yes. As always, you feel good after Day 2, but don’t fully breathe until the 12th Round.
 
If Cuvet goes in the 11th rd for example, it's still sweating time because the team that drafted him may have preserved cash from earlier picks and they go lock him down.
So, if they go over the 11 - 20 Rd amount ($150K?), it counts against their Rd 1 - 10 pool, right? But you're saying they could under-slot 1 or 2 kids in Rd 1 - 10 and give that to Cuvet w no repercussions?

Explain the significance of the 12th round.
Round 11 is when teams take fliers on HS players they weren’t confident enough to sign when some of their pool money was at risk. If you get to the 12th Round, you should be okay. To answer your question to Pitcher in the Rye, they can offer any money they save from their pool plus the “free” amount to players after Round 10.

1-10 Count against the pool. If they don't sign one of those guys, his slot value gets subtracted from the total. They could still swoop in if they loved a player and wanted to spend the dough.

Got it, thanks. These MLB draft rules give me a headache.
 
Some of these guys sign the next day, some wait till the last minute. Has to be tough for college coaches considering the signing deadline and portal deadline don't overlap much.
