A week ago, I made THIS POST regarding the signing status of Madison Bumgarner with the San Francisco Giants.  I’m actually surprised that he hasn’t signed yet.  He has less than 24 hours to get it done, or he’s off to college instead of professional baseball.  Madison isn’t the only draftee that San Francisco is having trouble signing, but he’s their top pick of the 2007 draft.  I still think he’s going to sign.  I guess his agent has probably told him to hold out until the deadline in hopes that he’ll get more than San Francisco is offering him.  Unfortunately, I believe that won’t happen.  I think his agent is hurting him right now more than helping, but that’s just my opinion.  I’m already seeing 2007 draftees playing ball in the minor leagues.  I just wish that Madison was one of them. 

I guess the definitive stories on this matter will surface in the news tomorrow…
