I was watching Shark Tank the other day. One of the Sharks offered the entrepreneur twice what she was asking for. Mark Cuban was shocked. "You are going to think about that?" She wanted to hear the other offers...and wound up getting a deal with Cuban and Barbara for the original asking price after the sharks started whittling them down. Sometimes you can't be afraid to say yes.
I have little doubt that they will get a deal done and that he'll be the highest paid pitcher in history. Deservedly so. But turning down $300 million? That takes some huevos.
