A closer look at top prospect Lucius Fox
The last time the San Francisco Giants spent over $6 million on an amateur player, his name was Buster Posey and he went on to win a Rookie of the Year Award, an MVP, two Silver Sluggers and three World Championships. So forgive me for getting excited that the Giants have decided to again invest seriously in a prospect.
This time, the recipient of the Giants’ generosity is Bahamian shortstop Lucius Fox who the Giants signed to a $6.5 million contract earlier his summer. With penalties, the Giants will end up paying around $10 million on the transaction.
