    No chance they declare him a Free Agent. Can't just change the rules because he wants to pick his team.

    Regardless, this is NOT good press for the Braves. The article does mention it being a long shot.

    Not giving a pitcher with a bad wrist what he wanted is bad press? It won't have any effect on the team at all.

    Seems an odd situation- most kids sign.

    I think we found a legit injury and offered less than full $. He got bad advice and played really hard ball. We didn’t play back.

    Did you read the article even??? He's claiming we broke the rules and didn't offer even the required amount.

    Pretty much my feelings. I don’t see how he wins this.

    Sorry, kid. You can't try to gain this ticket to sign with the Houston Astros.

    Is there a minimum that a team has to offer. Especially in lieu of an unknown injury at time of draft.

    When did I say I believe it? It's an allegation being made and an actual grievance has been filed by MLBPA. Is that a lie?

    There is a minimum in order to receive draft pick compensation in the event that the player doesn't sign. I'm assuming that is what he is arguing.

    Players may suddenly decide to not allow the Braves to draft them.

    Cliff's Notes:

    Team has to offer 40% of slot value to get a compensation pick.

    Stewart says Braves didn't offer that much.

    Bora$ is still a d!ck.

    Not sure what Stewart can prove, but if a grievance was actually filled by the MLBPA, I'm guessing he's got something. However, Braves can use the injury argument. Hard to see this gaining stream. Still doesn't make the Braves look good.

    The thing working in his favor is AA's past. The record of not signing picks makes the injury look more like an excuse. Not saying it wasn't real, just saying it's not a good look.
