Scott Boras is like human jazz, or at least he wants to be. Here’s what the super agent to the stars said about Bryce Harper when he was pitching the 26-year-old outfielder to any teams out there that are willing to meet their apparently exorbitant demands.
“Certainly Harper’s bazaar has begun,” Boras told reporters at the MLB GM Meetings.
“It’s fashionable. It’s historical. It’s elite. Global certainly. And certainly it has inspirations that deal with great shoes and great hair.”
We’re not 100% sure what he’s talking about, but he went on to explain the value that the 2010 No. 1 overall pick brought to the Nationals and will bring to whichever team offers a half-billion dollars or so (somewhere between $325-$500M) to his client.
“You have an iconic player,’’ Boras said, as quoted by USA Today’s Bob Nightengale.
“For an owner to know the rocket ship of economic opportunity is just blasting off because the player is just entering the prime of his career, you’re really talking about a unique and rare opportunity...
“He’s almost a lock to be a Hall of Fame player.’’
And it’s not just the on-field production. Boras told New York Post writer Joel Sherman that during Harper’s six seasons in Washington, “the club’s value climbed more than four times, attendance increased

Scott Boras is back.
One winter after infamously slow-playing his top clients on the free-agent market, Boras has reportedly secured the richest deal in MLB history: Juan Soto's 15-year, $765 million contract with the New York Mets.
This was far from the first nine-figure contract that Boras has negotiated in his career. In fact, it's not even the first he's completed this offseason. The super agent negotiated a five-year, $182 million agreement between Blake Snell and the Los Angeles Dodgers two weeks ago.
A few more Boras clients will soon sign nine-figure deals, as he represents Corbin Burnes, Alex Bregman and Pete Alonso. Boras has also helped Yusei Kikuchi, Matthew Boyd and Tyler O'Neill earn rich deals and is expected to do the same for Sean Manaea and Ha-Seong Kim.
Needless to say, Boras has helped a lot of players become rich over his four-plus decades as an agent. It was 24 years ago that Boras brokered the original blockbuster deal: Álex Rodríguez's 10-year, $252 million contract with the Texas Rangers. A-Rod's ensuing extension was even bigger, and it remained the highest in the sport until 2015. But prior to Sunday, none of Boras' contracts ranked among the top seven in baseball history anymore.
With that, here are the 10 largest
