Extractions: Spring 1998: The J.D. Drew Saga The owners instituted the amateur draft in 1965 to keep themselves from bidding up the value of top prospects. While the reserve clause bound players to their organization for life upon signing their first contract, amateur players remained free to sign with whichever club offered the most money. This freedom allowed untested 18-year-olds to sign for more up-front cash than a veteran could earn in ten years. But after Rick Reichardt used his bargaining leverage to extract a $205,000 signing bonus from the California Angels in 1964, MLB decided to eradicate this sliver of free market. The draft rules defined draft-eligible players to include those who had never "signed a professional baseball contract." When they were written, "professional baseball" included only major league clubs and their minor league affiliates but after the Northern League and other independent minor leagues formed, the rules weren't amended. Scott Boras, a former Cardinals and Cubs farmhand who had become one of the game's most powerful agents, saw a loophole. At the time no one knew what a player like Varitek would be worth in the open market. That would soon change, thanks to a series of mind-boggling blunders by club executives. Major league rules require clubs to tender contracts to their draft picks within 15 days after selecting them, but in 1996, only

After a record-setting three years at Florida State, he had become a poster-boy for greedy ballplayers when he engaged in an acrimonious contract holdout after being drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in 1997.

Extractions: June 3, 1997 : The annual June amateur draft features two brothers being drafted in the first round. Ignoring J.D. Drew 's warnings about not drafting him unless they're ready to pay out, the Phils take the FSU junior with the 2nd pick, while the Indians take his brother Tim Drew , a high school senior, with the 28th pick: it's the first time brothers have been picked in the same first round. In another first, Great Bridge High School in Chesapeake, VA, has two players picked on the first round;
Extractions: My Dad wanted to take me to watch this ballplayer from Florida State one day over at the University of Maryland. From time to time, Associate Head Coach Kelly Kulina allowed me to be the bat boy during the games when the older boys played. Coach Kulina's son's name is lil' Kell. Kell played on the team my Dad coached one year. Kell still remembers the trophy he got from my Dad for being named the MVKG (for Most Valuable Kindergarten). Kell's Mom just stopped by to return the video tape she borrowed. (SlamJam (w/Michael Jordan). Anyway I called Kell on the telephone to ask about being a ball boy at tonights game. Kell's Dad said it was O.K. I told my Dad that $11M will make your grandchildren financially secure. He wrote it down in his composition book. During the game I watched, J.D. Drew never said any bad words, ran very fast into the outfield and back, and never became disappointed with his performances. I also watched him enjoy talking to a lot of people. He smiled a lot, and always looked like he was having fun playing. My Dad said JD was refreshing to see, talk to, and of course watch play. Of course I read a little bit of the good book before I went to bed this evening.
