It depends upon whether you believe his statement, that he is doing it for the team, or if you believe he is doing it because he can not handle the situation. I don't know enough about the kid to make that judgement. But if the Cubs are interested in him, I think it is likely that they have done the research to make that judgement.
I imagine that it depends upon how far down he falls. It sounds like he has the talent to be a mid-second round pick. I assume that no one will take him there, but if he falls to round 5 - 6 - 7, someone is going to take a chance on him. I wouldn't mind if it were the Cubs.
