    Scott Boras is a real piece of work

    Did you guys happen to hear his comments about Andruw Jones at all. Boras is claiming that he is just as good if not better than the rest of the outfielders that are currently out there on the market, and deserves to be paid what their agents are asking.

    Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here, but didn't Andruw Jones have the worst year of his career last, even despite knowing he was in a contract year.

    I'll tell ya this Boras has got some balls trying to command top dollar on this guy.

    Boras is a greedy pig and he puts his players at risk with his boneheaded negotiation tactics. SEE A-Rod or Kenny Rogers.

    Name one player today who is worse off for having Scott Boras as his agent?

    Is this one of your MLB trivia questions? I'm stumped. What's the answer?

    Not sure how that answers the question, but I guess in your world it does.

    Not a trivia question, taco...name one of Boras' clients that is worse off for having Boras as his agent? (Again, not 'almost' worse off, Bateman, worse off, period.)

    Everyone can agree that Boras is a jerk, but what he did with Dice K last year was amazing. He has to be the best agent.

    yeah really. u could say almost for arod but thats like saying Ainge almost ****ed the celtics. in hindsight boras played it like a pro and proved to be the man. Man went toe to toe with the yanks and won.
