Could be. Gammons said something interesting today. The Astros made their initial bid around 80M. Then the Mets came in at 112M, an adstounding 32M more then then current best bid. Beltran could have hired Boras before he knew he would command so much attention in the FA market. Maybe he got Boars because he thought he was slated for $50 and wanted some more money. But now that he knows he can get over $90M he is content to play anywhere. -- 2004 - The year $184M couldn't buy a pennant.
