$ (466,135.00)
Aaron Zavala, the team’s second round pick, is the only player who the Rangers have yet to sign among their top ten picks. As things stand now, if the Rangers do NOT sign Zavala, they have exceeded their allotted bonus pool money by $68,300, but still have up to $466,135 in bonus pool money available to spend before they would face a draft pick penalty, which kicks in when you exceed your pool by 5%.
Zavala is expected to sign, with an announcement expected today or tomorrow. Speculation has been that he would sign for a little below slot, though he could sign for slot or even above slot, theoretically. In any case, it is not expected to deviate significantly from slot, and if Zavala does sign for slot it would give the Rangers another $100,000 or so to work with while staying under the 5% limit.
