There is a big difference between drinking and being busted at least twice that we know of for DUI, and then trying to use your position to get out of those charges.
Now back into your hole.
It is interesting that both the Sox and Rays styled deals around injured players that might be coming on a discount. I wonder if that was intentional strategy based on Cubs asking prices, or if there was hive mind going on there.
The problem is some players have already agreed to sign for less than slot, which is why they get drafted. If they agree to one number, and then change their minds, they could blow up a teams entire draft class.
