Here we will be keeping track of each draftee taken by the Tampa Bay Rays over the course of the draft, their projected signing amount, and how much they actually signed for.
The Rays have a bonus pool of $14,068,000 that they are alloted to spend on the selections they made over the first 10 rounds of the draft; for every pick after the 10th round, any amount over $150,000 will be counted towards a team’s pool. If a team overspends, they would face the following consequences:
- 0-5%: 75% tax
- 5-10%: 75% tax and lose future 1st round pick
- 15+%: 100% tax and lose two future 1st round picks
If you see any information regarding the Rays draft picks, please provide it in the comments and I will update the draft tracker accordingly.
