Buehrle>Wood Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 02:44 PM) Sure, but not enough to leave tens of millions dollars on the table. Also, literally every MLB team contains Spanish-speaking players. Funny enough, that's the Mets pitch to him. He absolutely loves the Spanish culture of NYC and is reportedly willing to take a big discount to stay there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 03:25 PM) I just figured it was clearly a joke.. and immediately the first person took it seriously. That's all. I apologize my sarcasm meter was off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (oneofthemikes @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 03:41 PM) I mean, I would say that at the very least they don't dislike each other... Right. But imagine your most average friend. Maybe a guy who see once every couple months. Don't know him super well, but always got along. Let's call him Fred. Now, you're job hunting, and get offers from two companies -- one of which is the place that Fred works. The company that Fred works for is offering you 30% less money. Do you choose Fred's company? What if Fred was your best friend in the whole world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (peppers312 @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 03:39 PM) that's a pretty nice lineup compared to Eaton Cabrera Abreu LaRoche Garcia Agree...that lineup...woof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorkChopExpress Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 02:12 PM) Interestingly enough -- the Rockies just DFA'd Kyle Parker, which could be signalling a move on their part. Perhaps we could be trading for a Rockies OF instead. Can't wait to see the Sox announce the trade with CO ... for Kyle Parker. There's your new OF.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 03:49 PM) Or is it a Pauly situation? Or it could be bulls*** from the start. I don't really get timeframes. Just general statements. I think it'll end soon enough as he's the only premier free agent left now. Supposedly teams are dropping out too. Half of the MLB speaks Spanish. Not really the best comparison. I think this whole Cespedes-Abreu thing makes no difference. Money, location (family), team's proximity to winning are really the only thing that matters. Unless you're a Cubs fan of course. Everyone wants to play for the Cubs. Yes or it could be bulls***.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 @jonheyman Astros may not be done. They've tied for Upton and starters, and owner Jim Crane says they're "nosing around" a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He absolutely loves the Spanish culture of NYC and is reportedly willing to take a big discount to stay there. That's a thing that has been reported, sure. But unless it comes directly form the mouth of his agent, it's more than likely just speculation. Also, every major city has a huge Spanish-speaking population. If that's a priority, than the Angels should be the clear frontrunners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 02:34 PM) Why does everyone assume that all people from Cuba are friends? Balta and I are from American, and we are friends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jan 20, 2016 -> 02:40 PM) It's weird. When I moved to Chicago and told people that I came from Ohio, like 1 in 10 would immediately say, "OH! Do you know ?!" we all just think of you all as the people who decide the president Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I like that someone just created an account and their username is 'Yoenis Cespedes'. That name is going to be funny if he signs somewhere other than with the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know a guy name Doug he works at the Lighthouse Mall? He sold me some loafers back in 97. Good guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
