The Indians can go way over slot to sign Brady Aiken and Triston McKenzie

I'm confident they'll get things done.

The Indians have agreed to signing bonus terms with most of their draft picks through the 10th round. Nathan Lukes, the team's 7th round pick, has reportedly agreed to a deal, but the terms have not been announced, which leaves only three players unsigned: 1st round pick Brady Aiken, competitive balance pick Triston McKenzie, and 8th round pick Justin Garza.

Juan Hillman, the team's 2nd round pick, signed for $825,000, which is a pretty penny to be sure, but is also more than $200,000 below the slot value of his draft pick.
