“What is your number?” is one of the most frequently asked questions to a player as the MLB draft approaches every summer. MLB teams want to know it, your agent wants to know it, the coaches at the college you are attending or committed to want to know it, but what is it and how do you calculate it?
With everyone asking what this number is, how should you and your family calculate this number and who is qualified to help you understand the true value of the opportunity that you are foregoing to begin your professional career?
In this episode, Travis and Will look at how to analyze the opportunities you have and give insight into the questions that should be asked. While your agent/baseball advisor should be uniquely qualified to help you determine your market value, you need to ask if they are also qualified to calculate your human capital and the opportunity cost involved with deciding between professional baseball and college baseball.
