Eaton to minors

Eaton has always puzzled me.. it seems a lot of folks think he has a high ceiling (Rangers, Phillies, etc), but he's only been able to put it together for a couple of half seasons.

Is this a situation where the scouts got it wrong, or Eaton not living up to potential?

I read an article a while back when he was with the Rangers that said he has not lived up to his potential. The scouts were big on this guy, but he just can’t stay healthy.

Though, I need to hire his agent to negotiate my next salary. Eaton received something like $24 million over the next three years. not bad for only pitching more than 150 innings 3 times in the last 8 years.
