I'll set it at 3 'tutes and 8 lines of coke.

Does anyone else find it a little suspicious how they're completely downplaying signing him? We went from Samson saying that they want him badly and will negotiate up until stupidity, and now all I hear is "ah, whatever, if we sign him, cool if not oh well." I mean even the official Marlins twitter just RT Rodriguez's tweet saying that whoever signs him doesn't know what they're going to get.

Just seems kinda weird to me.

By the way, I'm all in with 2 prostitutes and 10 lines of blow.

Samson made the early comments prior to his "retraining" at Camp Don't Be A Complete Dumbfvck"

I think the man knows that if he wants to be a star, he has to be a star here. This is swaggville.

[Fishfan79]

Got 4 lines of coke, 3 Cuban Cigars, 4 Hookers, and a Lap dance from Samson to seal the deal

An offer has been made:

Yoenis Cespedes met with Marlins brass this week and returned to the Domincan Republic with an offer worth roughly $40MM over six years, a source close to the negotiations told Eric Reynoso of Cafe Fuerte. Cespedes, according to the source, still doesn't have any immediate plans to meet with other teams. Prior to meeting with Cespedes, Marlins president David Samson hinted that the club would make an offer to the Cuban outfielder. The interest seems mutual as Cespedes told reporters that he would like to play in Miami.

Also within the piece, Reynoso writes that utility player and fellow Cuban Adonis Garcia became a free agent on Thursday. Agent Carlos Perez says that he has fielded interest from six teams, though the Marlins are not among them. The 26-year-old, who has shown the ability to hit for power, spent this winter with the Magellan Navigators of the Venezuelan League.

I'm not that excited about this guy, but the offer is about what I expected. Regardless, I just wanted an excuse to post this gif.

At least it's not $60.... yet.

Hearing that the #marlins have offered OF Yoenis Cespedes LESS than the $40 million figure that has been reported.

...

[Mainge]

I bet it's either more or less than $40 million.
