Reply to "How Much Should Strasburg Get?"

OMG!

The best (or worst) part of the draft process is here. Sign or attend college?

Many college (and HS) players have life altering decisions.

Such questions will be answered by next week, marking the end of the MLB Draft signing period.

As of date, 20 of the Top 32 picks have NOT signed.
Slot money ranges from $900K to $2.5M.

Not one of the players, that Boras represents have signed, yet.

Should Strasburg get Boras's full time attention, next week, what happens to his other first round draft picks.

Matt Harrington, a 2000 first rounder and then drafted 5 times, never signed (turned down $4.9M!)(& is in Texas changing tires at COSTCO (not that there is anything wrong with that).
Harrigton's agent T. Tanzer, after many botched negotiations, no longer represents baseball players.

1st rounder A. Crow (pitching at Fort Worth in the 2009 Am Assoc.) states he is being offered less this year than the Nationals offer in 2008. Dayton Moore and the Royals response 'And your point is?', reflects the opinions of many owners.

For GM/Scouting Directors, time is running out.

Stay Tuned

postscript: J H, I hear the youthful enthusiasm and naivete. The other poster is simply inexperienced in such matters.
