    Met sign Pelfrey



    I think it's a joke he wasn't drafted until the 9th pick because of the current draft system. For most clubs in the draft, the main issue is whether you can sign the player and not whether how talented the player is.

    I've heard rumblings the draft system will change once the CBA expires at the end of this year. Bonuses will be slotted and compensation picks for FA's will be eliminated.

    I find it ridiculous for a guy who 1) won't be playing in the majors for a while or 2) might not even make it to the majors since the draft is a crapshoot that they expect to be signed to a guaranteed contract. That's the reason why Matt Bush, who IMO would've been a top 10 pick in the 2004 draft was drafted by the Padres over Drew and Weaver.
