BA reported today that the Cubs released their #1 picks from 2003, 2004 and 2005. Combined signing bonuses totaling over $5,200,000. None reached MLB.
When I read about that and follow players like Aeden, I understand that the core of MLB is $$$$$.
Luckily, the game is played by young men who bring passion and love for the game.
No matter how hard MLB tries to screw it up, players, whether they be Aeden who gets released, or Zach Duke who makes it, keep it the game we love.
