    30th-rounder Cody Bohanek tweeted something from a Wal-Mart in Greeneville on Sunday night. Looks like he's already having a blast.

    The tweet has since been deleted.

    Jason Lewis does sports for the CBS affiliate in Albany. 8 members of the 2017 draft class have been assigned to Tri-City although they haven't been activated yet. 13th-rounder Jake Meyers (OF, Nebraska) has made his decision...

    Pinto's and Shaver's coaches think they'll sign, which does not mean that they actually did. The article I posted about Watts makes it sound like he signed, but there doesn't seem to be anything definitive.

    Adrian Tovalin (16th), Roman Garcia (19th), and Noel Pinto (34th) are on the Greenville roster, so pretty sure they can be added to the signed category.
