Stop whining you little bitch… no one made you sign the contract. No one put a monkey’s head in your bed while you were sleeping.

Also, isn’t paying someone an ungodly sum of money for one season of performance the reason 7-8 of those “horrible” contracts exist?

This is all going to work out just fine when he signs a 10 year $300 million contract at the age of 32 and is league average or retired for the last 6 years of it.

I worked with a guy named Michael Hunt. He specifically asked to be called Michael

I celebrate the guy’s entire catalog. But anyway, let’s get down to business, Michael!

You know, you can just call me Mike.

West coast lacks marketing sizzle, especially in baseball.

Pujols didn’t make more than $1M until his 4th year (and 114 homeruns, and 3 Top 5 MVP votes).

I don’t get why this is suddenly a thing. Kid’s good and all, but damn.

There are plenty of companies that cater to the angry frat boy crowd, so I think Bryce will get his endorement money.

Already has a deal with Under Armour – which yeah, bingo on that catering – and given the location of the company I would imagine they will be keeping him sweet for quite a while.

Only thing that might hurt him is he won’t be endorsing any booze.

It would be much better if his name was MIKE HAWK.

As bad as Trout is a last name, Bryce is an equally terrible first name.

He could make big bucks in a crossover promo if he’d change his name to Wow Shamwow.

True, lube has far better marketing opportunities than fish-related companies.

gorton’s got that harsh-sounding fish-company brand name on lockdown yo.
