Except the A's are still willing to look at adding him to their 40 man roster so he can get paid right away. The A's retained his rights for a reason they aren't giving up on him yet. If he falls out of round 1 an expedited trip to the majors with guaranteed money at a much higher rate with big league amenities may be appealing enough to switch back.
