in response to BradleyJKinkaid:

I understand the delimma these kids & families must face, although I have not experienced it personally.

But I ask this totally out of curiosity, what is the percentage of college kids (I guess specifically pitchers in this case) who will suffer career ending/severely hampering injuries?

Seems more prudent to go to college to me.

So he goes to college blows out his arm and gets nothing. He goes to minors gets a check for 135k blows out his arm and goes back to college.

Seems the kid has a better start with 135k in the bank then nothing at all, so tell me again how that's a bad decision?
