John is partially correct. While Prince has no issues with chupys, his agent Scott Boras had a very scary incident with them as a child and refuses to deal favorably with teams located in markets with large chupy populations. In fact, he has stated before that this area’s chupy population was his motivating factor in making the deal with the Rangers all those years ago that cost the Mariners A-Rod. This was all on Wikipedia, so it has to be true.
