porcello reportedly close to signing

baseball america is reporting that rick porcello is close to signing a $7.7 million deal with the tigers.  the reported deal would break the record for highest guarantee ever given to a high school player (josh beckett received $7MM in 1999).  assuming the reports are true, do you think the cardinals should have drafted porcello over kozma?
