Damn. Seven total years? If true, I'm happy to not lose anyone, but that's a little much.
I’m guessing that it’s 5 not 7 years. Still this is really excessive. International signings have always been the Wild West.
Braves are not losing Kevin maitan but your going to wish they had. Based on what bill shanks just read on his program MLB will violate their collective bargaining agreement if they make maitan a free agent. However the penalty might be a two year ban on signing any international free agent plus 5 years at only 50% of money allowed for all teams to spend

Not sure how true it is since it's facebook. But there.
the key part is we keep Bae

It’s not really a contract if it’s not enforceable. If the contract was signed and became valid at 16 it wasn’t a contract before then regardless of any handshake agreement before then.
From Gammons:
When the sanctions against the Braves are revealed and they lose some international signings, one member of the organization who had nothing to do with the violations says that an example is that one Asian infielder that was signed got a $300,000 bonus that kept them within the allotment borders, but he was promised another $300,000 in 2018 that would have been paid under the table. They also expect to lose infielder Kevin Maitan, who received $5M, but the new order Braves are not concerned, feeling Maitan was no worth the money or the hype.

The reports from Shanks and Gammons are not even in the same universe. Not sure what to believe. Not sure BS is wrong here. (Didn't think I'd say that.)
sounds like we might lose Bae
"I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
"I am your retribution."

Trust me, I know. Maybe it's because of the idea of violating the CBA. Maybe it's wishful thinking.
