class=\"paywall\">\n       For players, the team that drafts them can have a major impact on how they develop as baseball players, but it also can have a huge impact on how much money they earn.<\/p>\n<p>Each draft slot in the first 10 rounds of the MLB draft is assigned a certain amount of guaranteed bonus money it can offer that player, referred to as the \u201cslot value.\u201d The slot value is guaranteed in the form of a signing bonus.<\/p>\n<p>A team could opt to spend more than the slot value but could incur a penalty from MLB if they do \u2014 a team could also spend less than the slot value, but risk the drafted player not accepting the offer. Unlike the NBA and NFL drafts, athletes selected into MLB can opt to go back to college if they are drafted out of high school, thus forfeiting any bonus money from the MLB team.<\/p>\n<p>In baseball, all drafted players begin their careers in the minor league system, where salaries are low, so the signing bonus they receive on draft day makes up most of the money they will earn until they reach the majors. Once in the majors, they can begin to negotiate a new contract \u2014 only about 10% of minor leaguers make the big leagues, according to data from MotherJones.<\/p>\n<p>A more detailed look at the MLB\u2019s slot value system can be found <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blessyouboys.com\/2013\/6\/26\/4463258\/MLB-draft-slotting-bonus-pools-penalties\" class=\"icon none\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See also: Police open probe as three England players who missed penalties in loss to Italy face racist abuse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because of this system, dropping a few spots during the draft can actually cost players hundreds of thousands and dropping 10 or more spots can cost a young athlete over a million of dollars.<\/p>\n<div id=\"cx-membership-tile\"><\/div>\n<p>Here are the estimated signing bonuses for the first round selections of the 2021 MLB draft, according to\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spotrac.com\/mlb\/draft\/\" class=\"icon none\">contract monitoring site Spotrac<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 1 Henry Davis, Pittsburgh Pirates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $8,415,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 2 Jack Leiter, Texas Rangers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus:$7,789,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 3 Jackson Jobe, Detroit Tigers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus:$7,221,200<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 4 Marcelo Mayer, Boston Red Sox<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $6.664,000<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 5 Colton Cowser, Baltimore Orioles <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $6.180,700<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 6 Jordan Lawlar, Arizona Diamondbacks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $5,742,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 7 Frank Mozzicato, Kansas City Royals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $5,432,400<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 8 Benny Montgomery, Colorado Rockies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $5,175,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 9 Sam Buchman, Los Angeles Angels<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,949,100<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 10 Kumar Rocker, New York Mets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,739,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 11 Brady House, Washington Nationals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,547,500<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 12 Harry Ford, Seattle Mariners<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,366,400<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 13 Andrew Painter, Philadelphia Phillies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,197,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 14 Will Bednar, San Francisco Giants<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $4,036800<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 15 Sal Frelick, Milwaukee Brewers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,885,800<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 16 Khalil Watson, Miami Marlins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,745,500<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 17 Matt McLain, Cincinnati Reds<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,609,700<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 18 Michael McGreevy, St. Louis Cardinals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,481,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 19 Gunnar Hoglund, Toronto Blue Jays<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,359,000<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 20 Trey Sweeney, New York Yankees<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,242,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 21 Jordan Wicks, Chicago Cubs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,132,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 22 Colson Montomery, Chicago White Sox<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $3,027,000<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 23 Gavin Williams, Cleveland Indians<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,926,800<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 24 Ryan Cusick, Atlanta Braves<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,831,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 25 Max Muncy, Oakland Athletics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,740,300<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 26 Chase Petty, Minnesota Twins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,653,400<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 27 Jackson Merill, San Diego Padres<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,570,100<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 28 Carson Williams, Tampa Bay Rays<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,493,900<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick No. 29 Maddux Bruns, Los Angeles Dodgers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Slotted bonus: $2,424,600<\/p>\n<p><strong>See also: No fans at the Tokyo Olympics will lead to at least $800 million in ticket-sale losses, analyst says<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The MLB draft resumes on Monday at 1 p.m. EST on MLB.com<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"byline article__byline\">\n<p>      <span>By<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author  hasMenu\" data-scrim='{\"type\":\"author\",\"header\":\"Weston Blasi\",\"subhead\":\"The Wall Street Journal\",\"list\":[]}' itemscope itemprop=\"author\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<h4 itemprop=\"name\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weston_Blasi\"><\/span>Weston Blasi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
