The Rangers gave Porter the equivalent of a first-round signing bonus which ensured his agreeing to a contract.
Oh well...Coach Bakich is doing an excellent job assembling a nice group of players for Tiger baseball.

I certainly don’t blame him, but it would have been great to have him.

After you pay taxes, agents, strength coaches and others 4 million doesn't go far especially if it takes you years to work your way up. But then again hard to blame high school players when the NCAA has screwed them.

4 million plus medical, if done properly, is essentially a 40 year career. A solid investment in real estate and building of an IRA and even without making it to a second contract and he could retire. I'm not saying that is his ideal outcome but I'm sure there are many looking back who wish they could have signed up for that.

WHAT YOU GLASS HALF EMPTY PEOPLE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT IS THAT WE KEPT TRISTAN SMITH, ANOTHER VERY HIGHLY RATED GUY THAT WAS PROJECTED VERY HIGH IN THE DRAFT. PORTER WOULD HAVE BEEN SOME NICE GRAVY.
