mlb free agency

[BB15]

i think he's just using the mariners as leverage. unles he's got some unknown desire to play with jesus montero and noesi again... the mariners are effed

There's no doubt that he is, but if the M's and Yankees are $60MM apart....

 

[T.Heck]

M's reportedly offering Robbie Cano 10/$240MM. Jesus!

If that was the Cubs I would go shoot Theo myself...... 10 years

 

[BB15]

If that was the Cubs I would go shoot Theo myself...... 10 years

Yeah, 10 year deals never end well...but whatever.

 

[T.Heck]

Yeah, 10 year deals never end well...but whatever.

I still have that soriano nightmare to think about, atleast Ms are in a better position then cubs to win.

There's no doubt that he is, but if the M's and Yankees are $60MM apart....

If I'm the yankees, I dont change my offer.
Cano is great, but due to be injured soon.
And 10 years, is WAY TOO LONG!!!

[trip]

the mariners honestly have had good luck with their non signings.

see: zito, hamilton, jason schmidt, i think they made an offer to pujols

all spent time on the DL. i really can't remember a big one that went on the shelf for awhile. gutierrez, but he wasn't a "big signing" or a free agent

 

[j.bishop]

Damn...... I like that for Royals, you bs'ing?

No bull**** , it's done

 

[T.Heck]

No bull**** , it's done

I know he is in his 30s but he is a nice ball player...... we have to be missing something, over paid do you know?

 

[j.bishop]

Nah they gave up a pitcher named Will Smith and I think he's only getting paid like 1.75mil

[stork]

Maybe the Royals can finally get themselves in contention. Been teasing with it for a bit and it would be nice to see it again. It has been a lonnnnnnnnnnnng time.

 

[T.Heck]

Nice grab..... he is shin soo choo with half the homeruns.....

 

[j.bishop]

Problem with the Royals is their #1 is James Shields, shields is a nice pitcher but he's no #1

 

[j.bishop]

Furcal signs w/ the marlins to play 2b

 

[hrdchrgin13]

I'm certain Furcal was on peds when he had those good years

 

[stork]

Salty did what he needed to do, but I really hope Marlins don't do **** until they right the leadership/ownership.

 

[mcm21078]

Barry Bonds looking good these days

 

[j.bishop]

Barry Bonds circa 1992

Dat AIDS...

****. cano deal back on track for mariners..

 

[Joker]

angels aren't the only team in the AL west that can waste money

 

[trip]

oh they've been trying to the last few years. i don't get it.

why the **** did he come to seattle, outside of the money?

they're well known for their latino community, deep rap influences, and vast amount of nightclubs.

from 74 wins to 79. awesome. now go get ubaldo jimenez, trade taijuan walker for kemp, and sign choo and i'll get a little excited

 

[curveball]

Latest sources say he's a Mariner, $240M 10 years.

 

[mcm21078]

yeah ESPN citing a source that says its done. I am glad he is not going to NYY. They will now overspend for someone else to please their fan base.

How many elite years does Cano have left? 5 tops?

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/...rs-jay-z-new-york-yankees-negotiations-120613

Deal is done. 10 years 240 million.

 

[gold_glove9]

Greatest second baseman in Seattle history aside from Brett Boone...

 

[trip]

maybe he really likes macklemore and still thinks jimi hendrix is alive

 

[justinstp]

Pedroia gets 7/$100mill and Cano gets 10/$240? Wtf

 

[bradblah]

mariners have spent $239.2 mil over the last 8 seasons combined.

 

[trip]

Pedroia gets 7/$100mill and Cano gets 10/$240? Wtf

supply and demand.

and one was an extension and one was a free agent.

 

[DRock88]

This is the year of the overpaid. Ellsbury, overpaid. Cano, overpaid. Etc, etc.
