With MLB Free Agency officially underway, we have been extremely busy talking to teams about a couple of our clients who have a lot of value to add to an MLB organization. Clubs have shown a lot of interest in Gary Patchett and Matt Scherer, both of whom have a great deal of experience at […]
Jayson Werth, Adrian Beltre, Carlos Pena, and now Rafael Soriano will be on Scott Boras‘ list of clients to shop around this offseason to the highest bidders.

That said, don’t lose your dream of […]

A Ranking Of Sports Agents
Here is an interesting nugget that I recently found, which was originally published back in January 2010 – The Top Sports Agents That Aren’t Scott Boras. The title of the article assumes that Scott Boras is the #1 agent including all agents in all sports. Do you agree? What about the actual list? Who is […]
Yesterday, I took my first simulated Multi-State Bar Examination. Talk about a draining experience! Imagine sitting down for 7 hours, only one of those hours aside as a lunch break, and hammering away at 200 difficult multiple choice problems. Yeah, I’m not really looking forward to 2 days of that in roughly a month from […]
