Atlanta Braves draft signing tracker

The Atlanta Braves draft pool shrank this year after they lost their third round selection due to the scandal. The Braves started with a $8,267,300 poll and may use that money any way they wish to sign selections from round one through ten. They must sign all of them or it can get expensive.

Failing to sign a player selected rounds in one through ten results in the loss picks slot value from their total pool.

If the Braves spend between 0-5% above the total pool allocation, they pay a 75 percent tax on the overage. Essentially every dollar about the limit costs the Braves $1.
