re: Is this not wrong?

Was it a dick move on Zach Lee's part to say that he wanted to play football unless payed uber amounts of money? The Dodgers would only be taking advantage of what he started. Plus, the Dodgers will offer him a good amount of money to sign their first round pick. It's not like they are going to say, "Oh, he's playing football, we didn't know oh well. Let's not waste our time on even offering him a contract." It's up to Lee to see what he wants to take to play baseball. And I look at this as some negotiating leverage on the Dodgers part to counter his demand.

Risky moves by both parties, but leverage for each.
