Scott Boras is the Antichrist. OK, that may be a bit harsh, but he, as much as anything, is hurting the game of baseball. His assault on the league has been going on for years. He is the super agent who controls about 8% of all MLB players. He has been dubbed, “The 100 Million Dollar Agent”, having negotiated deals of nine figures for 14 MLB players through the years. More than half of those deals can be dubbed duds.
Prince Fielder, Jacoby Ellsbury, Shin-Soo Choo, Chris Davis, Mark Teixeira, Barry Zito and Jayson Werth, all became extremely wealthy thanks to Scott Boras.
