While there’s no slot value to players picked after round 10, the Brewers can sign those players for up to $125,000 without counting against their cap. However, if they sign for over that amount, any amount over will count against the cap.
Here are the potential overage amounts and attached penalties for the Brewers this year. In the years since the bonus pools and overage penalties were instituted, teams regularly exceed their allotment and go into the overages. Last season, 21 of 30 teams went over their bonus pool. However, no team under the current system has exceeded the 5% threshold.
