I would love to hear stories about Scott Boras, and I know that you know I would love to hear them. kyle.boddy@gmail.com, hook it up.

Something I wonder is if it's possible that he screws some of his players over by getting them some of these contracts. For example, with draft prospects having him as your agent will severely limit the number of teams that will draft you.

i believe it's jim callis who was asked in a recent chat whether he would hire boras, and he said no if he was a prospect and yes if he was a marquee free agent. i think that's probably right.

yup, didn't this just happen a couple of years back with jed weaver?? he was supposed to be the best player but got dumped way down in the draft b/c he was with boras??

either way, he knows what he's doing, does it much better than mostly everyone...and i still hate him...

I think your average MLB owner is far more dishonest and vlie than is Boras.

no way Boras can be better than Jerry Maguire.
