Thank you Scott for being such a notorious douchebag that your client, the best pitcher in that year’s draft, fell to the Mets.
Thank you Scott for pricing you client so out of most team’s budget that even if we wanted to trade him we couldn’t.
Thank you Scott for negotiating a million dollar salary for your young client that the Mets were inclined to keep him in the majors.
Eight scoreless innings out of Mike Pelfrey. I can’t believe that. What’s even stranger is it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if it happened again. We’ve all heard about Pelfrey’s bowling ball two seam fastball and how much talent the guy had, now we get to see it first hand. Whether it has more to do with experience in the bigs or a non-jerry curled pitching coach we’ll never know. Welcome to the big time Mike Pelfrey.
And thank you Scott Boras. I know I’ll take that back when Ollie turns free agent.
