everyone agrees that boras has leverage but i think most people here think that should allow him to get $5-$8 million guaranteed for ranaudo rather than one of the highest contracts of all-time. he's a great talent, but he's not a price or strasburg so it's not very likely that he gets paid like one as you're suggesting
you're right, the record previous to him was $10.5 million. i just don't see a guy drafted 39th, coming off an injury, becoming the third highest paid draft pick of all-time
to put $10 million into perspective, the record for the most money guaranteed to a draft pick is $10.5 million. and we're not talking about a clear cut #1 draft pick with a clean bill of health here
$10 million is silly. david price only got an $8.5 million contract and he had better stuff, actually was the top draft pick and wasn't coming back from injury
thanks. she has pretty much as positive a prognosis as you can get, but even if everything goes as planned, recovery's still a drawn out 2.5 year process
that's why i've been on here so much lately. i'm staying with her in the hospital and she's asleep half the time so it's either the internet or tv for entertainment
i was hoping to get some sleep, but unfortunately my girlfriend needs to get a blood transfusion tonight so i'm going to be up. if daisuke sucks too much i'm just gonna turn it off
