That article says he’s in negotiations, but offers little else. I guess it’s a good sign he’s at least open to negotiations rather than saying, “I was an 18th round pick, I’m going to school” but doesn’t offer much insight.

That, and we know outside of Strasburg, the Nats didn’t select tough signs because they weren’t going to pay the money.

He’ll sign – It took Hood a little time as well, and he was a guy that you knew was going to sign. Give it a little time.
