Well, what’s this narrative about Pittsburgh not wanting to pay Crews?
They drafted Termarr Johnson at #4 last year & he signed for $7,219,000 (the assigned value for #4 was $7,005,800).
In 2021 they took Henry Davis #1 for almost 2 million underslot.

Davis' agreement will pay him a $6.5 million signing bonus, reports MLB Network's Jon Heyman. MLB's slot value for the No. 1 pick spot was a little over $8.4 million.

So we will only look at what they did 2 years ago, instead of last year?
Let’s also not mention the fact that Henry Davis got injured 6 games in to his professional career so maybe he signed for less due to a medical issue…. similar to Kumar Rocker with Rangers/Mets?

They did this so they could draft guys and pay them overslot in later rounds, not because they're cheap.
The MLB draft is so complicated in part because the elite high school prospects have a lot more leverage than draft prospects in any other sport.
