DRAFT RESULTS
Let’s remind what the penalties are for exceeding the slot bonus value. Bonuses that exceed the slot value by < 5% are charged an overage tax of 75% of the amount in excess of the slot value. If the bonuses exceed the stipulated slot value from between 5% to 10%, there remains a 75% overage tax assessed for the excess bonus, AND lose next year’s #1 draft pick. A little Dodger news on Sunday/Monday. We have learned that the Dodgers have signed their 6th and final draft pick, RHP Clayton Beeter.
The calculated 5% limitation is $296,420, which at first blush puts the team in a position to lose their 2021 1st draft pick.
