I was up all night negotiating with the Giants on your behalf. They want the Bantam! They agreed to the ten million signing bonus, but they balked at the private room while on the road. They think he should bunk with another player at least until he's 14!
I'll keep workin' on it though...
PS: thay also liked his GPA... with the billions in revenue baseball generates, it's getting more and more difficult for them to show a loss on the books every year.

OK...time to bump this thread. The weather in N.E. Ohio has been dreadful here lately, as OR also could profess, because of that the coaching staff (me included...pats his own back) has been pitching my son in 3 inning stints to save him for make-up games.
Last 3 outings.....3 innings each: combined stats
9 innings 0 hits 0 runs 1 walk 21 strikeouts.
We won 2 of the 3 games, the game we lost he pitched 3 innings of no hit, no walks, 8 strikeouts and hit 2 monstrous homers and a triple, ended up with all 6 RBI for the team and we lost 8-6.
To his credit, he didn't blame anyone except me (j/k).

OK OK... Private room on the road with PS 2 AND X BOX... I'll even personally pick out the blue m&ms if he doesn't like them. In the National League, he'll get to bat, and the weather's better out here too 
We want the Bantam!!! (We're working on his theme music right now for when he enters in the 9th. It's either "There Goes My Hero" or " All I Need is a Miracle", but the final decision will be up to him of course.)
Any other demands??? (I mean... requests
)
