A 10th round slot is about 50k plus school.
However, a lot of players might get more money for their slot as an enticement. Crosby went 5th round but he will still get 1st round sandwich pick money.

I will not give specifics of how much money a young man received in a public forum. This will be public info. from MLB as players sign.

Good luck to all. This is a fun and scary time if you are on the teter-toter.
Baseball America list signing amounts for the first ten rounds for every year since 2003. Rounds 5-10 do NOT fall under the slot system. The word from "on-high" is that teams can sign kids who are drafted below round 5, for the MLB determined slot figure for the last team that picks in round five. Although the draft and follow rule is gone, many of those 30+ round picks in the past have received significant bonuses. You will drive yourself nuts trying to understand the system & much of what I read in the paper is garbage anyway because they know very little. It would take hours of research to make some hay of it.
