Big Tex's Decision

Is it just me or is this guy truly not able to make up is mind, i mean come on teams are throwing 200 million dollars at him in a time of recession and he wants more, he is holding up the whole market for guys like abreu, giambi, manny, i dont know maybe he is hoping boras can engage the yanks, i mean i wouldnt mind it but at the same time this guy is definately being a little selfish here and he knows he is holding up the whole market, i will say this though he reminds me of tino, i dont know why ...

i’d be willing to blame it all on boras. He does this with all his clients, and he makes all his clients look like selfish douches.

he's a boras guy through and through

always has been, he’s all about the money period.

This has little to to with Tex ...

I was talking to a friend of mine last night. He’s a beat writer for the Angels, and says the fans, and management are fed up with Boras. He thinks had Tex been with any other agent, he’d have already signed with the Angels. Instead, he says, “He’s been reduced to a pawn in Boras’s mad drive for $200 million.”

Boras thinks he's clever

But he is going to negotiate his client right out of a job. Angels are out, Red Sox are out, this leaves Baltimore or Washington …what luck to play for those teams! Making 20 million a year and out of the playoffs by June!
