Some teams don't sign Boras' clients. DET has been trading and/or not signing Boras' clients in the last 3 years or so. There are quite a few Free Agents that are Boras clients. Do the Tigers sign them? Or will they balk because they are Boras clients?
 
I know little if anything about the agent-player dynamic but I figured that Boros would have bigger fish than Romine as clients. Maybe he adjusts his approach depending on the player, IDK.
 
So the team with the most Boros clients just won the world series.

****NOTE: Detroit Tigers gave Boras' client, Jacob Turner, the largest signing bonus ever given to a high school pitcher ($4.7 million).

Isn't Boras still getting paid off Arod's current contract?
