cabiness42 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I'd rather have Upton by far, but I don't like the idea of giving him 6+ years, which is what he's going to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Upton easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panerista Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I'll take either, but I think the White Sox have a positive history with Cuban players and might have an easier time convincing Cespedes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Both are a bit overrated as hitters but the QO makes a difference for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I prefer a left handed power bat but that would require another trade and I doubt that happens. I can see the pros and cons for both Upton and Cespedes but if I must choose one I'll take Cespedes along with three picks in the first two rounds of June's draft.

Y2HH Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 QUOTE (SoxAce @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 12:41 PM) Upton. Not even close either. How so? Cespedes: DWAR+0.7, WAR +6.3 in 2015 Upton: DWAR+0.2, WAR +4.4 in 2015 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Getting Cespedes would rekindle my excitement around the White Sox. Getting Upton would feel like having years added onto a prison sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2HH Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (3GamesToLove @ Dec 16, 2015 -> 01:00 PM) Age, track record beyond one season. Upton is 28, Cespedes is 30...they're less than 2 years apart in age. And still incorrect. Upton: 2012 WAR +2.1 DWAR -0.4 2013 WAR +2.6 DWAR -1.5 2014 WAR +3.3 DWAR -0.9 2015 WAR +4.4 DWAR +0.2 Cespedes: 2012 WAR +3.4 DWAR -1.1 (rookie) 2013 WAR +1.7 DWAR -0.5 2014 WAR +4.1 DWAR +0.7 2015 WAR +6.3 DWAR +0.7 In either case, Upton still isn't better...and he sure hell isn't better "by a lot".

Frank_Thomas Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Out of J Up, Cespedes, Gordon who do you think gets the most $ and years? I think Gordon cost the least and may be the best fit for this team. A LF handed contact hitter who is an elite defender. Id be absolutely floored with any of these guys. So to choose one is hard because I think all three bring different tools, skills, assets, and character we need. Just get me one for Christmasy Rick please.
