2019 MLB Draft Signing Bonus Pool and Pick Values by Eric Longenhagen and Kiley McDaniel April 3, 2019 We got a hold of the bonus slot values and, it follows, each team’s total pool amount for the upcoming 2019 MLB Draft. The PDF we acquired from an industry source was missing Washington’s comp pick for Bryce Harper at 138 overall, so we added that and manually recalculated each team’s pool total (which were incorrect on the PDF because of this missing pick). (Update: After receiving additional clarification, it appears that Washington will not receive a comp pick for Harper; the pick that would have received as Harper compensation became the pick they gave up to sign Patrick Corbin.) What follows is, first, the total draft bonus pool amounts for all thirty teams, followed by the individual slot values for each pick in the first ten rounds of the draft. Picks labeled “COMP” are compensatory selections for players lost via free agency or from last year’s unsigned draft picks. Picks labeled “CBA” or “CBB” are competitive balance picks (rounds A and B) allocated to teams in the spirit of parity. These can be traded, and several have been. In both the compensatory and traded competitive balance picks, we note the players for which the picks were received. The tables here will be updated if competitive balance picks change hands or if teams receive comp for a yet-to-sign free agent who received a qualifying offer, like Dallas Keuchel or Craig Kimbrel. 2019 Draft Bonus Pools Team Aggregate Bonus Pool ARI $16,093,700 BAL $13,821,300 KC $13,108,000 MIA $13,045,000 CWS $11,565,500 ATL $11,532,200 TEX $11,023,100 SD $10,758,900 DET $10,402,500 TB $10,333,800 PIT $9,944,000 MIN $9,905,800 CIN $9,528,600 SF $8,714,500 TOR $8,463,300 NYM $8,224,600 LAD $8,069,100 LAA $7,608,700 SEA $7,559,000 NYY $7,455,300 COL $7,092,300 STL $6,903,500 PHI $6,475,800 CLE $6,148,100 WSH $5,979,600 CHI $5,826,900 OAK $5,605,900 HOU $5,355,100 MIL $5,148,200 BOS $4,788,100 2019 Draft Signing Bonus Slot Values Overall Pick Round Team Slot Amount 1 1 BAL $8,415,300 2 1 KC $7,789,900 3 1 CWS $7,221,200 4 1 MIA $6,664,000 5 1 DET $6,180,700 6 1 SD $5,742,900 7 1 CIN $5,432,400 8 1 TEX $5,176,900 9 COMP (Carter Stewart) ATL $4,949,100 10 1 SF $4,739,900 11 1 TOR $4,547,500 12 1 NYM $4,366,400 13 1 MIN $4,197,300 14 1 PHI $4,036,800 15 1 LAA $3,885,800 16 1 ARI $3,745,500 17 1 WSH $3,609,700 18 1 PIT $3,481,300 19 1 STL $3,359,000 20 1 SEA $3,242,900 21 1 ATL $3,132,300 22 1 TB $3,027,000 23 1 COL $2,926,800 24 1 CLE $2,831,300 25 1 LAD $2,740,300 26 COMP (Matt McLain) ARI $2,653,400 27 1 CHI $2,570,100 28 1 MIL $2,493,900 29 1 OAK $2,424,600 30 1 NYY $2,365,500 31 COMP (J.T.
