There's no way a Major League Baseball team is going to sign a first-round draft pick and then let him play football, with its risk of injury



Thw Phillies did with Ricky Williams. If he wants to he can do both, If your as old as I am you will remmber Jamie Howard played pro baseball in the summer & college football the following fall.

We got some dumb MoFo's on this board. Comparing Ricky Williams (who won a Heisman) to Jared Mitchell (who caught 12 passes in three years).

If he signs a contract with the White Sox, you have a better chance of playing football next year.

because ricky williams would have quit baseball, which he did, if the phillies told him not to play football. ricky's future was always in football. if jared mitchell had any sort of future in football, then yeah they MIGHT let him play; however, i'm sure that there would be some sort of clause in his contract saying if he was hurt playing football, then the baseball team wouldn't owe him shite if it ended his career.
