Reds sign Kolten Wong - MI - 1.5 mil bonus
Roy: Corey and I were just talking about this. Jake wasn't aware of his roster status and would not have selected Cole if he had better knowledge on his roster. While it is his responsbility to know his roster, this still creates an issue in the draft. The best way may be to allow Jake to repick his player so that it is legal and then give people down the line a chance to repick. For example, I would take Cole if Jake doesn't and then someone may take BA's #2 guy causing a couple other changes in selections. It's best to solve now as Jake may not want to drop a bunch of prospects to clear cap room.
I would be dead set against that! It was Jake's responsibility to know his cap space the same way that the Royals got stuck with someone, because he didn't make a pick. I would allow Jake leniency in clearing cap space, but no way should we re-do any picks.
This may be a non-issue if he cuts J.D. Drew and Brian Fuentes.
