DALLAS — At the hotel where these Winter Meetings are being held — the Hilton Anatole — a Scott Boras client coming off his age-24 season, Alex Rodriguez, signed a then-record 10-year, $252 million contract to leave Seattle for Texas after the 2000 season.
The Mariners won an MLB-record 116 games in 2001 without A-Rod.
Following the 2018 season, a Boras client coming off his age-25 season, Bryce Harper, left Washington to join the Phillies on a 13-year, $330 million contract.
The Nationals won the 2019 World Series without Harper, but with Juan Soto.
