Of the ones I've listed, only 5 have officially signed, but the others have agreed to terms that are significantly higher than slot (Vega-Rosaro, and Beede)

If the info turns out to be bad at a later time, I'll change it, but usually if there's smoke, there's fire. Last year, I only had to make one correction and that's because he decided to go to college at the last minute instead.
Appreciate the info either way - it was nice to read some positive news after the weekend pasting.

I'm enjoying the baseball reading this summer (trying to block the Canucks out) and would love to find a good broad spectrum MLB forum with lots of activity - do you have a good site you go to?
