Baseball has the biggest prima donnas in team sports

Become a Rays fan. Prima donnas don't last long on the team--and what's more, when they go elsewhere for more money (Carl Crawford, Melvin Upton Jr.), their careers usually crater.

I have no explanation for Upton but Crawford was dogged by injuries. (One remembers sadly that, during his rather disheartening tenure with the Red Sox, he admitted to trying to play through severe pain rather than deal with then-manager Bobby Valentine possibly riding him as a quitter.)

David Price hasn’t shown any slow down since leaving.
