Anyways, this deal kind of amazes me. Puig has scouts totally divided over how his career will play out in America and most sports journalists think this was a really stupid idea by the Dodgers. Time will tell, I guess.

Nobody is worth that much, but it ain’t my money. In a world where Judge Judy makes $45 million a year, this kid’s getting chicken feed.
