Good post, Craig.<BR/><BR/>By the way, Boras is the anti-christ.<BR/><BR/>And I don't even belive in religion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9131289420618991795.post-12438537396174798842008-08-08T14:08:00.000-04:002008-08-08T14:08:00.000-04:00Same thing applies to Pedro Alvarez, another Boras...Same thing applies to Pedro Alvarez, another Boras client drafted by Pittsburgh. It would be quite a gamble for Alvarez to go back to Vandy for his Senior year after being drafted #2. Almost nowhere to go but down from there.Automatic_Wing https://www.blogger.com/profile/10174899673368042634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9131289420618991795.post-50992238136670418992008-08-08T13:06:00.000-04:002008-08-08T13:06:00.000-04:00Anonymous is right...what's happened so far is exa...Anonymous is right...what's happened so far is exactly what Keith Law and other people who know the draft inside and out predicted would happen.

Everybody is playing chicken with the deadline, just like last year, and most if not all of these guys will sign ... but I wouldn't expect the avalanche to start until 24-36 hours before the deadline. For all the reasons the article mentions, I can't imagine Hosmer not signing. Until he actually doesn't, I'm not getting worked up about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
