2008 Draft Picks Signing Lists....

I know Baseball America normally puts up a page where it lists the picks in order of round and then puts in bold if they have signed their with the teams that drafted them yet.  Is that page up yet?  Have any of the newly drafted 2008 players signed on with the teams that drafted them yet or is it still too early?  I remember last year there were a few guys who signed the day after the draft, and I'd be interested to follow players from this years draft who have already signed their first contracts.  Lemme know if there's such a page yet or if anyone knows if any of the 2008 draftees have inked a contract yet.

They’ll start bolding signed picks in their draft database, but haven’t yet.

He's extremely quick and good.

Rangers have signed 15 picks

according to the Dallas Morning News blog. Their 3rd, 4th, and 6th rounders, and then 12 guys from the 15th round and later.

...and curse Sir Sidney Ponson, he was such a stupid git.

Royals have signed 24

You can see the link below. 3rd rounder Tyler Sample is the highest to sign thus far, although Derek Ladnier was on the radio today saying 2nd rounder Mike Montgomery should sign today.

He wants $1.7 million

Tough to say. At least they’re talking and the Melville family has characterized the talks as productive saying the Royals are in the ballpark.
