Jerry Kapstein

Jeremy A. Kapstein is an American attorney and sports agent. He represented most of the highly-paid players in Major League Baseball (MLB) in the decade following the advent of free agency in the mid-1970s. He was called "the Scott Boras of his day" by Dan Shaughnessy in Francona: The Red Sox Years, a book he co-wrote with Terry Francona.

Politics Kapstein began his run for Rhode Island lieutenant governor on April 29, 2010. He was the first politician to speak out against the state government granting Curt Schilling and his 38 Studios a $75-million loan guarantee to move the company to Providence. He received 35.8% of the votes in his Democratic primary loss to the incumbent Elizabeth H. Roberts on September 14. An injury sustained in a car accident in Boston thwarted his second attempt at running for the same office four years later.
