They went over their bonus pool by $643K, triggering a 5% tax penalty. While bonus details for most first-rounders are still under wraps, the team’s strategy clearly leaned into outfielders and power hitters. Round 20 pick Connor Fennell, however, won’t be joining the organization—likely a late-round insurance play. The Sox also used saved money to potentially target higher-value signings, especially college seniors with limited leverage. Among the undrafted free agents, lefty Michael Sharman from Clemson stands out—24, with a strong college ERA and low walk rate. Now, the real test begins: how these new additions develop in the minors and whether any emerge as future stars.
