They have a draft? - Spawn Jun 8, 09:33
64 rounds of fun! (nm) - musubi Jun 8, 09:10
I don't pay attention until the 84th round. -- nm - Reagen Jun 8, 09:08 6
- I'm vehemently opposed to drafting kindergarteners -- nm - zork Jun 8, 09:24 2
  - unless they're Puerto Rican. -- nm - Reagen Jun 8, 09:29 1
    - But see this birth certificate says he's five *and a half* ... please to be careful you don't smear the ink -- nm - Puerto Rican little league parent Jun 8, 09:33
- Fool! The 62nd round is where all the action happens! -- nm - Ender Jun 8, 09:15
- In the 84th round, *I* have a chance. "This letter is to notify you that you have been drafted by MLB. Report to camp within 7 days of receipt." -- nm - Mop (235 lbs) Jun 8, 09:12

I think Strasburg's already scheduled his appt with Dr James Andrews for Thursday. - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:05
PS: If Washington can't sign Strasburg, they probably pick #1 and #2 in the draft next year. -- nm - David Jun 8, 09:05 10
- And then have to pay $75mil in contracts between Bryce Harper* and Strasburg. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:06 9
  - I can't imagine a situation where WAS doesn't sign Strasburg. Boras doesn't want a(nother) Matt Harrison story on his resume. - musubi Jun 8, 09:08 8
    - What's the Matt Harrison story? Are you talking about the guy we traded to Texas for Tex? -- nm - David Jun 8, 09:19 2
      - Matt Harrington, I think. - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:22 1
        
        Whoops. Yeah, Harrington. And in Boras' defense, the intial snafu wasn't his. - musubi Jun 8, 09:26
    - Well, if the # is 50mil like he's saying he wants, I think there's a good chance it doesn't happen - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:09 4
      - His primary goal here is to break the barrier in order to have the new mark as a jumping off point. - David Jun 8, 09:11 3
        
        Yup. His 50M number is a starting point, so he can let WAS feel like they talked him down. - musubi Jun 8, 09:13
        
        If it's sub-20mil, I can accept that given what we're seeing as Strasburg's level - Will Hunting Jun 8, 09:13 1
        
        Boras-hate is irrational. He almost always gets his clients signed. - musubi Jun 8, 09:16
/me turns off alarm clock. -- nm - Mop (235 lbs) Jun 8, 09:05
