Total from what I heard.
For this kid to be such a prima-donna even before he ever plays, He better be the Next Cy Young, and not the next Mark Prior.

Well, now I hear it's a 15 Mi. signing bonus.

If you have read his background it was an extreme waste of good money.

He was overweight, started pitching with poor mechanics, throws way too hard..

lets see

brien Taylor was already mentioned hows about

Eli grba.. laugh.gif or Ryen Duren ohmy.gif

or any of the triple digit on the guns who were lucky to have a backstop!

How does this prove it was a waste? By stating he started college overweight and with bad mechanics, this just proves how hard he works and how bad he wants to play the game at the highest level.

How is this kid a prima donna? And Prior could be winning Cy Young awards right now if Dusty Baker hadn't ruined his career.
