A's should offer him more $$$$ than he'll get as a 1st round QB. Believe the MLB was going to be fine with it.
It wasn't dumb, it was done in good faith. Safe to say they'll never do that again.
It would probably help if they paid minor leaguers something better than below minimum wage.
It has been that way for decades.
From a financial standpoint he made the best decision. From the perspective of long-term health he made worst decision.Which is why I think playing football is the right move financially for Murray even though he's giving back whatever he's giving up.
Edit: I get that Murray got a huge signing bonus, but still. Minor league baseball players hardly get any money.
I think he's just implying that Manny and Harper are superstars and aren't the norm.So Wainwright thinks that $30 mil for a decade for Harper isn’t a good enough deal?
I’m all for players getting paid and paid well but I just want to know what Harper and co. Think is a ‘fair offer’ and why...

No, he's advocating for the guys that get basically no signing bonus and then play for below minimum wage and have to quit playing baseball because they literally can't afford to keep playing.
