I admit I am a bit curious as to whether they use 100% of their pool for their 19 draft picks or try to save $100K to make a better offer to an undrafted free agent. That is a new thing this year. The ability to make that $200K-$250K offer to any kid in the country gives them much more flexibility than in the past when they might pick one draftee in the 21-40 range (like Logan O'Hoppe) to offer a bit more to.
I don't think any of their picks in the 11-20 rounds are right for the new junior college draft and follow.
I tend to agree. Boyd (11) and Rincon (14) are the only HS draftees in this group ā and both have JC commitments (and do not have commitments to baccalaureate institutions) ā but both appear to want to get on with things.

Several official signings:
Cade Fergus:
cade_fergus Officially a Phillie! Couldnāt be more thankful for the support of my family, teammates, coaches, friends, and @gwbaseball1 who helped me get to this point. Thank you @phillies for the opportunity to live out my dreams. Itās go time! #RingTheBellā
Troy Schreffler:
Josh Bortka:
Jordan Dissin:
Legit donāt know if that is the Clearwater complex or CBP. I think itās the former.
I believe these pics are from Clearwater. Still waiting for pics, or any other confirmation, from the guys we know were in Philly yesterday.
One more:
Gus Sosa:
Wherever it is, the guy in charge of placing outlets and logo decals should be reassigned.
No Iron Pigs decal? I like this set up better than the old desk shots, but it could be better designed if you are going to do it this way!!
Still a Crosscutters decal on that wall, even.
Maybe they thought we would not notice
We did draft or sign a couple of Crosscutters this year.
Yeah but they are not an affiliated team anymore, clearly the wall at the complex has not been updated. I'm sure the relationship doesn't hurt, if not the proximity (I mean, they could just as easily scout the heck out of Trenton).
Gabriel Rincones posted this on his Instagram a little while ago:

Starting to think Crawford is over slot. Can't imagine Boyd is more than 500K-600K.
3rd Rounder Rincones got 627,500 (Slot was $660,100)
The #Phillies signed fifth round RHP Orion Kerkering for $322,500. Slot value for pick No. 152 is $368,300. A $45,800 under slot deal. #MLBDraft ā Carlos Collazo ( @CarlosACollazo ) July 25, 2022
