Two players are still on the board for me, Matt Manning and Blake Rutherford.
Lewis and Hudson been linked to Tigers also.

I just hope they don't do something stupid like draft a reliever with the 9th pick.

I don't know for sure but I guess it has something to do with us not having a 2nd or 3rd round selections due to Zimmermann and Upton signings.

When a team loses the draft pick for signing free agents, they lose the money slotted for that round. So yeah what Hippo said.
