## Resource

The Toronto Blue Jays pulled off a masterclass in draft budgeting, using strategic under-slot signings to free up over a million dollars and land top prospect Will Brick—a 46th overall pick—on a $2.5 million bonus, far exceeding his slot value. By signing other players, including their own first-round pick, for less than their assigned amounts, and offering pennies to four seniors who couldn’t return to college, they turned a tight budget into a bold move. This calculated maneuver highlights how teams can creatively navigate bonus pools to secure elite talent. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
