I have access to food and water. I am very happy in Atlanta. Alex Anthopolous has not ever threatened me with violence to sign an extension. I am being treated very well. I am happy."

deltarich87 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Horrific deal for Albies. Acuna's was bad too but this is just pathetic. Looks like his agent didn't have the players best interests in mind and just wanted to get his cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsoxsuck05 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 This is borderline malpractice. Hockey players get paid more than Albies will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing borderline about it. These agents should have their certs immediately revoked. This is a joke, every single person I've talked too has only responded with "worst contract since Longoria, maybe ever". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsoxsuck05 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I already know the apologists will say “no one put a gun to his head to sign th extension...HEIL OWNERS!!” But agents have a fiduciary responsibility to act in the best interests of 22 year olds who know very little about finance. This agent is hurting his client and indirectly hurting tons of other clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardHawk Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Crazy deals for Atlanta. Finding two great players and both give club the Anthony Rizzo treatment. I don't agree with it and think it's insane to leave the money they did one the table, but as a fan, I could care less what they make. If they're happy that's good enough.

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 This is like if OBJ signed a 5-year/$10million contract for the Giants. What in the ever-loving heck are the Braves doing in these negotiations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
