A Scott Boras Offseason

Keeping on the theme of baseball for the day, just came across an LA Times article highlighting Scott Boras.  I find it kind of humorous, because while there are a ton of agents who do great work for their clients, it seems like Boras and Rosenhaus are the only ones that the mass media finds […]
