No question he would have earned about 10% of what he has in baseball.

My post was he probably made $100 more million in cold hard cash

He had a 95+ fb in 2006. Even if he didnt pan out as a starting pitcher, he could've easily been middle relief. MLB anything is a ton of money. That's a long career too.

I remember that guy. He was pretty good at WR.

The only thing shocking to me is how much money he has earned in baseball for being an average pitcher.

120 million? Wow.

Fast forward to present day and seeing those earnings and seeing Kyler Murray bypass professional baseball $ for football and that’s completely asinine


That would be the case if he was equally good at both sports. Football gives you money from day 1

I don’t think Kyler would have gone to the NFL if he didn’t know he was going to be the first pick overall, or even a high first rounder

If he didn’t have his heisman trophy season he probably would have picked baseball
