Jim Fainter Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 I saw this kid's name on the Bobby Howry newspaper article post. He was a number one draft choice of the Sox several years ago, and he achieved some notariety. The Sox, in their infinite wisdom, failed to offer this kid a contract within the prescribed time, and he was declared a free agent and got a huge contract from Tampa. I was out of the country in those days. Did this create much of an uproar in Chicago at the time? Did any heads roll? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Boras, that was also the time with Alex Fernado(sp) fiasco. but we were spared the fustration of watching him fail. at least i did. :fyou boras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Fainter Posted April 17, 2003 Author Share Posted April 17, 2003 Thanks, Chris. I can spell, but I can't type. The "u" and the "y" are right next to each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one of a handfull of draft picks that became free agents that year under the same circumstances so it wasn't just the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebeck Fan Club Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 In the end, none of those guys (Travis Lee was another) worked out at all. I don't mind us not signing guys who end up to be flops (like Bobby Hill, so far). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
