Last game of the St. Louis Vs. Cincinnati series. The Reds really need to win this last game to save face. Getting to Wainwright early will be the key, but it is easier said than done.

 

[Dick Shitman]

Strasburg needs to shut the fuck up. He did exactly the same freaking same thing when he was drafted too. Sanctimonious cunt.

Harper signs with Nats for almost $10 million
Tim Brown

By Tim Brown, Yahoo! Sports 55 minutes ago

In the final minutes before Monday night’s midnight deadline, the Washington Nationals agreed to terms on a contract with Bryce Harper, the 17-year-old baseball prodigy they’d made the first overall pick in June. The contract is worth $9.9 million.

The signing comes a year after the Nats paid a record $15.1 million for San Diego State right-hander Stephen Strasburg(notes) (another Boras client) and nine years after the Texas Rangers established the still-standing record for a position player – Mark Teixeira(notes) (yet another Boras guy), to a contract that ultimately was worth $11 million.

Harper, who will be 18 in October, batted .443 with 31 home runs and 98 RBIs as a freshman for the College of Southern Nevada, using primarily a wood bat. In order to enroll at the junior college (and therefore become draft eligible), Harper withdrew from Las Vegas High School after his sophomore year and, in December, received his General Equivalency Diploma.

A left-handed hitter, Harper played catcher, right field and third base for CSN. The Nationals on draft day announced him as an outfielder, but there remains some sentiment within the organization to have him catch, which presumably would delay his advancement.

no surprises there.

if he hadnt signed, how would that have worked? i know normally when guys get drafted out of HS, they can decline and go to college and be drafted again later.

in this case, it seems like harper had no intention of staying in college for 3 more years

Independent League , JD Drew Did it his first time being drafted, Luke hochevar for the royals did it also, and i believe Jered Weaver in 2005 also

and Plus Harper was at a Juco college he wouldnt have done three years, he Would have been able to return for his sophmore year and get drafted again

D1-A is where you have to stay for 3 years....if you coming out of Highschool and say you Sign with University of Texas then you're there for 3 years before you're draft eligible, or you have to be 21 ....thats why Red shirt sophmores can be drafted at D1-A schools, because they're still 3 years removed from Highschool.

[dc's teflondon]

Yea Harper Wasn't going anywhere tho' Scott Boras just does that shit so he can get the most money out of the team for the pick, he waits until the deadline .
