[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Bryce Harper is looking for a ways to become draft eligible though. SI did a pretty big story on him, I'm not totally sure how they are going to do it but it basically said he'd be wasting his time facing high school competition for the next 2 years - he's that much better than everyone else.

He hit the longest homerun in the history of Tropicana Field already, granted it was with a metal bat during an HR derby contest but still

LeBron tried the same thing, but he wound up staying through high school.
