I think that GM Mike Rizzo should be holding that area scout's feet to the fire... this is a rather large screw up and the exact reason teams have area scouts(to find out if a kid will sign, find out about his makeup, and embarrassing stuff exactly like this.) There were posters on here that found that "stuff" within minutes and hours, an area scout who spends 12 months a year studying his territory should have caught this well before selecting him on day 2 of the draft.
For the Nationals to have taken this kid in round 15, an area scout saw that kid at least twice and someone else likely saw him as well. Very strange that they would miss this-
Well I doubt that a scout's job is to check his Twitter... they may not even know how to use Twitter. It's very possible that his coaches gave positive reviews.
