Around SBN: The Gift Of The 2003 Tigers

[Aroldis Chapman] is being courted by the New York Yankees and Mets, the Boston Red Sox and likely other clubs. Team executives say figures of $15 million to $50 million have been mentioned...

"He’s a once-every-40-years player," says [his] agent.

Chapman was all blinged out during a 45-minute interview... wearing a large, shiny watch and gleaming earrings.

Chapman got a short taste of what the major leagues are like when he sat in the stands last month for Game 6 of the AL championship series at Yankee Stadium.

I am sure that is what his agent should say.....

“He’s a once-every-40-years player,” says [his] agent.
But once every 40 years…..I am sure he is a very good prospect, but I really see the price jumping with those remarks…..It will be interesting.

so every 40 years

a 6"4 ""21"" year old LF Cuban defects and just so happens to throw a 100mph?

Of course!

…yet, do you give him $50mill for being Cuban?

What about this Japanese reliever?

I’ll have to go find his name right fast, but he’s supposed to be one to watch as well coming over this season.

I told you we would beat Georgia!! Now, as for those 9 wins in '09......
