Has less than 60 pro games. Just wonder if the sell went through. I guess some people have more money than they know what to do with.

    I saw that and wondered as well. Maybe I should draft that boy for my strat-o-matic team's future use! Wonder what the buyer will do if that player never succeeds? Seems crazy speculation.

    Maybe the Yankees bought it as a “commodities” hedge. If he does well they can re-sell and pay off some of his arbitration dollars or put towards his extension. They already gambled $5.1MM on him - what is an extra $500K.

    Wall Street bonuses came out recently, there is a lot of stupid crazy money out there.

    I bought his Mojo Refractor bowman last year for $50. I usually don't gamble on these type of players since most of the time they don't pan out. But since I am a yankees fan, I wanted great card of his if he turns out to be great. If not I only wasted $50.
