Here are '21 Draft bonus pools, pick values

The Pirates are positioned better than any club in the 2021 Draft, owning the No. 1 overall pick as well as the largest bonus pool.

The top choice comes with an assigned value of $8,415,300 for the third consecutive year, after the MLBPA agreed to allow MLB to freeze the bonus slots at the 2019 numbers for both 2020 and 2021 as part of the negotiations for the 2020 season that was radically altered by the coronavirus pandemic. Pittsburgh has the first selection in each round as well as a supplemental second-round choice, and their total pool value is $14,394,000.

Besides the Pirates, nine other teams have eight-figure bonus pools: the Tigers ($14,253,800), Rangers ($12,641,000), Reds ($11,905,700), Orioles ($11,829,300), Red Sox ($11,359,600), D-backs ($11,271,900), Royals ($10,917,700), Rockies ($10,543,900) and Brewers ($10,063,400). The Astros, who lost their first- and second-round choices for the second straight year as a penalty for sign stealing, have the smallest pool at $2,940,600.

Each choice in the first 10 rounds comes with an assigned value, with the total for a club's selections equaling what it can spend in those rounds without incurring a penalty. If a player taken in the top 10 rounds doesn't sign, his pick's value gets subtracted from his team's pool.

The pools for all 30 clubs total $265,769,400 in a Draft that has been reduced to 20 rounds from the 40 called for in the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Last year, the industry spent a total of $238,092,829 on a five-round Draft. In 2019, teams set a record with $316,560,984 in Draft bonuses, including $55,896,284 after the 10th round.

In 2020, Spencer Torkelson became the first No. 1 overall pick to receive at least full slot value since the bonus pool era began in 2012. He signed for a record $8,416,300, which was $1,000 more than the allotment. Clubs near the top of the Draft often spend less than the assigned value for those choices and use the savings to offer more money to later selections.

Teams that exceed their bonus pool face a penalty. Clubs that outspend their allotment by 0-5 percent pay a 75 percent tax on the overage. At higher thresholds, clubs lose future picks: a first-rounder and a 75 percent tax for surpassing their pool by between 5-10 percent; a first- and a second-rounder and a 100 percent tax for between 10-15 percent; and two first-rounders and a 100 percent tax for going more than 15 percent over their pool allotment.

In nine years with bonus pool rules, teams have outspent their allotments a total of 152 times, but never by more than 5 percent. The Cardinals, Cubs, Dodgers and Giants have done so every time, and 15 of the 30 teams exceeded their pools last year.
