OmarComing25 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 8, 2016 -> 03:40 PM) Not if it's a simple Parra to Rockies, Cargo to Cardinals. That would actually be bad for the Sox, as Parra is more likely a possibility for Nats/Angels Still takes the Cardinals out of the running at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest lookers are the Sox and Orioles. Everyone else is on the periphery at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowler could be possible unless the do end up trading gio. Texas was looking at ozuna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be shocked if he's still on the Reds by spring training. There were reports earlier in the off season that Baltimore was interested I believe.

SCCWS Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I can still see Boston going for an OF. They have Betts, Bradley and Castillo but then it drops to Craig. They won't want Cespedes and they probably would love to unload a dead contract, but Upton may be on their wish list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 The three year thing is still really frustrating (since we now know it is not posturing), as is (to me) our interest in Gonzalez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He most likely didn't. I don't know, I'm just curious as to how he knows for sure that they're not posturing. It doesn't make any sense at this point to know that they were "fibbing" the whole time.

Baron Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I mean if they dont like giving up more than 3 years. They are going to really hate having to give up more prospects(who knows maybe Anderson) for one in the middle of the season because Garcia cant catch. You find his replacement now or later. It's just going to cost more later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 @Alden_Gonzalez Angels still looking for LF and believe they'll get one. But at this point, they either trade for one, or he makes less than $5M in 2016. Sounds like they're out on Cespedes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 This might be another case of the typical big spending field clearing nicely like with Abreu but still a long way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Realistically, what teams are still in the market for Cespedes? I think the Giants and Angels are out now, so that leaves us with the: White Sox Orioles Nationals Cardinals Tigers Are there any other teams I missed? I like our chances.

caulfield12 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Possibly NY if they deal Gardner or Ellsbury... Rangers but only on a shorter-term deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orioles waiting on Chris Davis. Nationals I think is more focusing on getting a CF. Cardinals best fit is the trade route, imo. Tigers are a scary team because YC has a past with them and the owner is willing to throw money all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilitch hasn't shown a willingness to go above the luxury tax though. Can't rule them out, but I wouldn't them a serious threat at this point.

BaconOnAStick Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) My source says that when I win the power ball tomorrow night I'll pay for Cespedes. Edited January 9, 2016 by Alexeihyeess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
