Boldt NU or MLB

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

With his draft stock dropping it looks more likely Ryan Boldt will be at Nebraska:

Getting him to campus is still going to be hard. Keith Law still projects him at 40 and it is very possible that someone will take him around there and offer him a little more money than usual because they know the deal they're getting that low.

Fingers crossed...

Noooooooooooooo

@JonNyatawa: Hmm. MT @PBbboese: REPORT: Ryan Boldt hosted at Fenway today by BoSox, who may make 7-figure offer. He's committed to @Husker_Baseball

 

[Huskball]

Based on the round he was drafted, anything over $100,000 would make the Red Sox get hit with a big luxury tax, so highly unlikely.

Webb Covers baseball for ESPN: (The money would be mostly a signing bonus and not salary.)

Chris Webb ‏@ChrisMWebb 2h I feel Boston could offer Nebraska signee Ryan Boldt somewhere around $1.25 million.

Grant Bachman ‏@GAbachman 42m

1. @ChrisMWebb for someone who knows NOTHING! About the scale. Is that below, at, or above his draft slot? Your gut feeling on him?
   
2. Chris Webb ‏@ChrisMWebb 37m @GAbachman I feel he signs.

Boston must either be having trouble signing their higher picks or made some incredible deals with their higher picks.

Nice summary of the the rules and regs and the possible scenarios involving Boldt, signing possibilities, and the money.

Good news indeed, but I won't be totally comfortable until after the August date passes.............

I agree. Bubba Starling was supposedly a solid commit here until the Royals threw enough cash at him to make him think otherwise.
