I can see it now. Cespedes signs with either Yanks or Nats, and then that team will come to Sox to solve their dilemma; that is, take an aging, overpaid, excess outfielder off their hands for prospects.

 

If it's the Nats, they need to get rid of Jayson Werth. If it's the Yanks, Gardner must go. Enter RH.

 

Werth has a full no trade close so its unlikely he gets moved. Plus he's going to be 37 this and has 2 years left on contract at 21 million aav. No way Sox would go after him.

Full no trade clause.

Gardner isn't great, but I wouldn't mind trading for him in the right deal.

 

Obviously he isn't as good as Cespedes, but he could slot into the 2 hole nicely behind Eaton.

 

Sox are not contenders they are pretenders.

Sources: Mets, Cespedes discussing an opt-out clause after the 1st year of a three-year deal. Would allow him to test market again Fall '16.

For Cespedes, 3-year deal/opt-out in '16 would give him chance to cash in next fall. For Mets, would limit financial obligation.

Expectation among some parties in the talks is that Cespedes will make his choice in the next 24 to 48 hours.

The nats stuff isn't real. Time to swoop in.

Update: Yoenis Céspedes likely to sign a 3 years deal with the #Mets, which will have an Opt-out. A decision is expected before Sunday.

 

and 48 hours ago his decision was going to be made in 24- 48 hours. I'm tired of talking about Cespedes!!

Seems like Sox were used a bit in the Gordon/Cespedes sagas. Oh well, time to get creative Hahn

I don't know about used. It remains to be seen if they put up the best offer. I'm pretty sure if they offered Cespedes 5 years right now without a ridiculous amount of money being deferred 20 years, they would have their man, but apparently there is a league wide reluctance to give him a lot of years. with Gordon, as long as KC was willing to give him a somewhat appropriate contract, no one had a chance.

He's just regurgitating what the national media says and puts his spin on it. He also makes s*** up

Three year deals are right up our alley, why wouldn't we be all over this!?

And Heyman just dropped the ol' #mysteryteam. No mention of the Sox at all.

The mystery team is an ass covering trick all these guys use. When is a "mystery team" not involved? Unless it is a slam dunk they are going some place, they say mystery team so if they go somewhere else, that was the mystery team even though there may have been 4 or 5 mystery teams, and some of the information they reported was a mystery to those involved.

 

 

Mibelt needs to start using mystery team. He will come off a lot more credible.
