Cespedes Re-signs with the Mets


dayan024

Recommended Posts

Before Wednesday would be nice. Gotta figure Wednesday and Thursday will be dominated by Hall of Fame talk, and if Raines gets in, the Sox will want to give him a lot of attention since the Expos aren't there anymore.

 

But we've waited this long. What's another couple weeks, amirite?

Sources have said that up to this point, the Sox have not signed a free agent outfielder.

 

These are the same sources that were correct in past predictions when they were the first to claim that the sky is blue on a sunny day and that grass truely is green.

 

All of this is earth shattering news and shall forever change your existence. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, L Ron Hubbard!

People put way too much faith into the rumor mill. Realize that even if something is true, it doesn't mean that things perpetually stay the same. And just because one party does something, it doesn't mean an absolute response will come in a short time frame. Players have families, wives, and other goals. Just because a guy gets an offer, this isn't PS4 where you get an instant response.

 

Quit holding your collective breath. I think a few of you are turning blue.

This week, things should start picking up again. The only thing is Wednesday, usually the Sox big announcement day is probably a no no this week with the HOF announcement. Probably very little negotiating going on since right before Christmas. If teams sign a big name, they want to make a big deal out of it. Signing someone during the holiday season probably ruins any chance at a big press conference and cuts down the publicity of the deal, nevermind all the agents, players and front office people have families, and most have obligations during this time. I'd be surprised if we went another week without one of these guys signing.

Agree these guys are going to hold out for best possible deal. I wouldn't be shocked if they were still unsigned 2 weeks from now.

I think a 3 yr deal at a higher AAV with a 4th year option is ideal for the Sox

If the White Sox are trying to "Backload" a deal to take advantage of Danks and LaRoche expiring without blowing up their 2016 payroll, then a higher AAV is something they can't do.
