You don't know that. They typically go to the highest bidder, period. Ego plays a big part in these contracts as well. They want the highest dollar amount.
He also gets to be the ace on an up and coming team in Chicago. I don't buy that we need to pay 15m more to get him.
Don Cooper opening his fat mouth once again. Gee, I wonder why everybody is negative. Maybe because the team has been trash for well over a decade? Can't wait for him and his shit attitude to be gone.
Having him and Vaughn would be exciting. Vaughn gets such incredible reviews. I'd be worried about trading him and getting bit in the ass for it. 1st base prospects don't typically have much value
He worked fine with a young Cubs team. He would be fine here. Unless you're saying we need a fluent bilingual speaking manager, which limits our options.
