Seth Levinson says it’s “absolutely untrue” Sox are out on Lester

 

Didn't know the Sox were involved.

 

Just hate it when people say "Sox" and mean Red Sox. You don't just say "Chicago" is interested in a player, or "New York" is interested in a player, so why would you say the "Sox" are interested in a player?

And hasn't done anything since his brand new contract.

 

Two thoughts:

 

- I wonder if they got the DBacks to take EJax back in the deal

- Is this going to lead to a possible Hamels trade with Wellington Castillo in the deal?

Bobby Evans also says they don't necessarily expect a Lester decision today. #SFGiants #Cubs #Redsox

 

He also said he doesn't think the Giants will get him. The one constant in every rumor has been that the Cubs are in his top two, and I'll be surprised if that's not where he ends up.

Still think the Yankees will move in and it will be an grossly inflated contract in the end.

I know the Cubs are going to end up signing or trading for an ace. I'd rather it be Lester as opposed to Zimmermann or Price or Cueto. If they give Lester a 7 year deal, that would be insane. By the time their stud prospects become stars (if they end up reaching their potential), then it's likely Lester will be well past his peak.

Zimmerman or Price will cost them a good prospect if not two making it a lateral move.

 

I do not think the Reds are making that trade in their division.

I meant after the season ends, when Cueto/Price would be free agents.

One of teams in Lester hunt has expressed willingness to go to a 7th year, source says, but offer not necessarily enough to get a deal done

 

i wonder if that was that other baseball team in chicago.
