Draft pick signing deadline is Thursday. Tough to know our cap/pool situation. After Pelletier we have about 180K in excess minus whatever we gave Fanti over 100K.

My bad. Signing deadlineis tomorrow at 5pm. Not sure if we will sign any others. Assuming that Stevens and Watson are not obtainable, the guys I'd like are Nowlin and/or Grady

Phillies website has a story saying they've signed 31 of their draft picks. Wilson was number 31, so no other signings today.
