Jackson Merrill feels real connection with the San Diego Padres

"An opportunity to sign with the San Diego Padres is enough for me, but I also feel like there comes a line where you know your worth, you know your value.
Further, Merrill said that there are teams offering a lot of money, but having a real relationship is something one can’t beat. He said:
“Listen, I know there are contracts out there that are beyond absurd, there's super amounts of money. But having a relationship with a real human being and a real team like I have here, you can't beat that."
