Difference is Jeff Samardzija is a pitcher, and a damn good one. All-American in fact. Drew Henson played 3B. Plus Samardzija played last spring/summer for the one of the Cubs' minor league clubs. They know what they're getting. Drew Henson never even played baseball at Michigan. Samardzija excelled on the diamond at Notre Dame. The Yanks drafted Henson based on his high school performance. I just think this is a very different situation.
