Lower than was expected - wonder if he comes back?

That thought crossed my mind as well.

This year the deadline for signing is July 15.

MLB.com's transactions page lists Ruotolo as having signed. Best of luck to Pat -- I'll really miss his presence in our bullpen.

Well, we won't have the July 15 deadline to worry about with Pat Ruotolo. Good luck to him as well. Three years of a really good player is a good run in college baseball, and you just can't expect anything more than that. Which is fine because that is what you expect going in when you follow college baseball.

Congrats to the former #UConn closer ('16), who earns the call up to the @SKVolcanoes! #HookC

That's in the Northwest League, a short season Class A league. Same level as the New York-Penn League in this area.
