Largest Major League Salary and Largest Pitchers ContractIn December 2015, McKinnis negotiated the largest contract in Major League Baseball history for a pitcher when David Price received a seven-year $217 million contract from the Boston Red Sox. This also tied the record for largest average salary ever received by any player at $31 million per year, tying with Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers. This contract is also the largest contract ever in the history of the Boston Red Sox franchise.[4] Both Cy YoungsIn 2012, McKinnis became the first, and only, agent ever to represent both Cy Young Award winners in the same year. David Price won the award in the American League and R.A. Dickey won the award in the National League of Professional Baseball Clubs.[5] Arbitration RecordIn January 2015, McKinnis negotiated the largest one-year contract in the history of Major League Baseball salary arbitration when David Price received a 2015 salary of $19,750,000 from the Detroit Tigers.[6] Pitchers Signing Bonus RecordsMcKinnis is one of only two agents to have twice set the record for the largest signing bonus ever given to a drafted pitcher. In 2001, he set the record for the largest signing bonus ever given to a drafted pitcher with Dewon Brazelton receiving $4.2 million from the Tampa Bay Rays. In 2007, McKinnis broke his own record when David Price received an even larger signing bonus, $5.6 million, also from the Rays.[7] Book CitationsMcKinnis has been written about and referenced in four books: Michael Lewis's 2003 book, Moneyball; Paul Byrd's 2008 book, Free Byrd; R.A. Dickey's 2012 autobiography, Wherever I Wind Up: My Quest for Truth, Authenticity and the Perfect Knuckleball; and Shi Davidi's 2013 book, Great Expectations: The Lost Toronto Blue Jays Season.[8] In addition, McKinnis became the first sports agent to ever be featured in the Sporting News 125-year history in the column "On the Agent Side" in its January 17, 2011 issue.[9] References1. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_30586.asp |title=25 December 2002 - Pitcher Paul Byrd Glad To Return To Atlanta Braves - Sports - Chattanoogan.com |access-date=2008-04-25 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071031021707/http://www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_30586.asp |archive-date=2007-10-31 |dead-url=yes |df= }} {{DEFAULTSORT:Mckinnis, Bo}}2. ^Cashman: Stanton a 'great Yankee'; GM expresses regret over how lefty's tenure ended - NYYFans.com Forum 3. ^Potential No. 1 Pick Price Taking Nothing For Granted{{dead link|date=November 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 4. ^[https://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2015/12/01/red-sox-agree-deal-with-pitcher-david-price/Tsv1SM9yjAU1TncmXJpFUN/story.html Red Sox, David Price reach record-breaking $217m deal] 5. ^'Cy Agent' Bo McKinnis wins trust of baseball's best pitchers 6. ^David Price smashes arbitration record with $19.75 million payday 7. ^Official Draft Site of Baseball America 8. ^Official Site of Free Byrd book 9. ^On the Agent Side{{dead link|date=February 2019|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}} 4 : American sports agents|Mississippi State University alumni|Living people|Year of birth missing (living people) |
