That second shot is a perfect one to crop for your avatar, nickjs21.

He's extremely quick and good.

He looks like more of a badass in mine. I’ll get a picture of him rounding third and high-fiving the third base coach in an Aeros jersey at some point.

And please, call me Nick.

How does a kid w/ quotes like that hire Boras?

by kwoog on Jul 9, 2008 1:29 PM EDT reply actions  

Hired Boras but signed almost instantly.

He knows who the real boss is.

I wish Scott did…

by kwoog on Jul 9, 2008 5:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

It helped that he was a senior and had no leverage.

He's extremely quick and good.

Thats a pretty good quote. It would only be better if he said, “I have come here to chew bubblegum and hit home runs…and I’m all out of bubblegum”.

Man the comments on the bottom of that article were depressing to read…I see what you all mean about cleveland.com.
