@PTWood posted:@CollegebaseballInsights they just got rid of the $20k cap a couple of weeks ago.
@ptwood thus confirming the point of that for the last 2 years, there really wasn't an option for those that came back for additional year.
There were 2 events that curtailed the decisions of many:
1 - Eliminate of 40 minor league teams
2 - Free Agent Signing Caps
Now, they were selected in rounds 6 - 10 swamp vs being able to sign on as a free agent.
Note, this is not to say they would have received more, but if a team selects you, there should be a minimum value they would need to provide towards the slot (e.g. 25% of the slot)
Note, IMHO this is a MLB and MLBPA collusion issue.
