Whisox05 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Doesn't seem like Cespedes will get 5-6 year deal from anyone. White Sox could be in good position if he's willing to drop asking price. https://twitter.com/ChuckGarfien/status/688413636390440962 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 They're sticking with the three year bulls***. I really, really hope this is all just posturing because four years might get it done at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Orioles reporter: Steve MelewskiVerified account @masnSteve 9m9 minutes ago It's clear some of you still badly want Cespedes. It just seems very unlikely to me now. Still need pitching by the way. Edited January 16, 2016 by Jose Abreu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jimmy0 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 It seems to me that the White Sox would sign Cespedes to a 4 year deal. He needs to lower his demands though. The 3 year things isn't true but I don't think they'd want to go 5 years with him. Cespedes is running out of options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is and I really can't see him taking a one year deal. If the Sox offer 4/$84M, he'd be foolish to pass that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Mike Puma @NYPost_Mets 44m44 minutes ago It would be overstating to say they are optimistic, but the Mets certainly see the Cespedes situation as getting interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Unless the Sox make a substantial offer, he is going back to the Mets without a doubt. He's familiar with the team, had great success there, its a better market to play, etc. There's simply no reason to turn to the White Sox unless they make it worth it... Call me a half-glass empty guy, but, I don't see it happening. I think the Tigers will also grab him if they can before the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I just don't see how someone (not necessarily us) doesn't trump the Mets' offer, it seems so weak. And Cespedes doesn't strike me as a guy willing to take a discount with a better offer on the table. I don't buy the Mets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom4789 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 so whats up with upton, didnt see his thread anymore. maybe go after him especially if cespedes wants that much money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why they wouldn't be optimistic. That boxing guy said he was close to coming back and they hadn't even made him an offer.

Jose Abreu Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 *Gordon signs* Something HAS to happen with Cespedes now! *Giants sign Span, putting them out of the running* Something HAS to happen with Cespedes now! *Orioles sign Davis, likely putting them out of the running* Something HAS to happen with Cespedes now... right?

soxfan85 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Just sign the guy already and let's look forward to a playoff run. The White Sox couldn't have a better opportunity than now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
