Obviously, the Pirates never saw this kid play competitively. If they did and they saw something that merited a $2 mil Bonus, WHAT HAPPENED? This has hair all over it!
Seems like the Pirates got played big time! To spend this kind of money on a 16 year old, somebody had to be positive about the talent, character, and WORK ETHIC of the player. It all has to come back to BC - is this the reason there was a shake-up in our representatives in the DR.
It’s 148 at bats. He may end up being a complete bust but this reaction is just way too hyperbolic. And he was a top 50 international guy on pipeline so it’s not like they handed out $2 million to some random who wasn’t highly touted.
Is Raymond Mola just a lost cause at this point?
