Yeah, I thought it might be a big enough signing with other moving pieces that posters would want to discuss it. If not, it will fall by the wayside quickly.

chw42 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 That must mean one of Encarnacion/Bautista will be gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Without Diamond Club , I think others are reluctant to start new threads for other teams signings but wasn't that what was instructed by Jason to do ? Any way Toronto has been busy since they also signed the younger Gurriel brother. Phillies also got Hendricks from the Dodgers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 This is a petty solid perspective on what Jose Abreu is worth in terms of annual salary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude. I don't know what vendetta you have against Jose, but he's worth WAY more than $11 million a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is. Aside from the 3.5 year age difference, they're numbers are pretty darn close. Due to Abreu's younger age I feel he's worth more than 11M but not much more. If Abreu gets back to his '14 numbers, that's a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Toronto will be very interesting to watch. Wouldn't be surprised if this means they sign Bautista. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Kansas City will also be interesting to watch after this. They have a team that has a ton of post-2017 free agents - Cain, Moustakas, Davis, Escobar, Hosmer, Dyson, Duffy, Vargas from a quick look. Basically their window closes in 1 year. If they don't find a quality replacement for Morales, they might as well start trading those guys now. They're going to have to make a move to add offense and someone under contract for 1 year would make sense. They have anything that would interest for Frazier?

Cuthbert...but that might be too much for just one year of Frazier in their eyes. Names like Zimmer, Starling, Colon and Hunter Dozier come to mind. They're going to be one of many teams looking at Fowler, Desmond, Carlos Gomez, Beltran, Rasmus, Napoli, etc. And they won't have a 3b after Moustakas departs...so they might go with a rotating DH to rest Cain/Moustakas/Perez/Hosmer/Escobar. But they definitely need another bat. Could be RF/CF as well. Edited November 12, 2016 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
