CARLSBAD, Calif. -- I ruined Scott Boras' monologue Wednesday.
He had already dropped Harper's Bazaar to refer to the market for free agent Bryce Harper this winter. He had already talked about Minnesota's attendance this season by saying only one Twin showed up. He made an obligatory joke about the Marlins, referencing the abbreviation for their hometown: MIA.
He was on a roll.
This was all good material. I think the superagent rehearses these now. Last year's "Playoff Town," became this year's Harper's Bazaar. And then somebody had to ruin it by asking about something not in the script: Adrian Beltre.
