I know the Dodgers were having problems with Kendall, Cooper, and Wong. Jim Callis of MLB.com had him as signed in principal, but also updated an official signing more recently. Hunter Greene signed with the Reds at the last second.

Only 5 possible unsigned players, and Rasmussen is the highest draft pick returning to school. I updated the list above. No surprises. Supposedly, because Rasmussen was not offered 40%, the MLB may make him a free agent, opening him up to signing by any team. However, I have heard that Tampa found something on their MRI of Rasmussen that caused them to back out. Casey has said that Rasmussen is still not at 100%. I am wondering, if anyone knows anything more. Jack Conlon turned down the Orioles and will head to Texas A&M instead. JoJo Booker and his battery-mate, Hunter Brittain, were both selected by the Angels. Neither signed. Both will head to South Alabama instead.

Only 5 possible unsigned players, and Rasmussen is the highest draft pick returning to school. Something came up on Lange's physical, and Lange ultimately accepted $1,925,000, 88% of slot bonus value. Estrada signed for $1,000,000, 449% of slot bonus value. The Cubs had to sign Lange, in order to sign Estrada, without forfeiting their first round pick in 2018.

I should add that Rasmussen is the highest drafted player to fail to sign since 2014, when Brady Aiken did not sign with the Astros. Another fun draft fact. The most recent first-round pick to be named an All-Star? Michael Conforto.

In Kendall's narrative, it seems they may have had the MRI before drafting him, and then refused to make any offer.

If they refused to make ANY offer, I don't think they could receive a compensation pick next year, and they seem to believe they are getting a pick next year. SaveSave
