Terrible news. But it underscores why a kid takes the money when he has the opportunity.

If this kind of injury had happened while pitching for LSU it could have cost him millions. He had no choice once they started throwing that kind of money at him.

I understand this sentiment, and I don't fully know what the situation with his arm, but if he is really done with baseball I hope he comes to LSU to get his degree.
What if this had happened 4 years from now. Unless you're smart with it (how many 19 yo are?), 5 mil won't last long. And unless he made it through the farm system quickly, he wouldn't be getting paid very big money. It's always good to get an education imo
