I guess "Cespides" is taking the place of "Coughlin" or "Bonafacio" in center

[Ramp]

I'll spell it right once he signs

[TheMendozaLine]

Can't wait to see Johannes Centipede in center field.

[jOOj]

The Human Cespedes.

Swag connected to face connected to swag.

[Namaste]

His name is both hard to remember and a pain in the ass to spell.

Per Joe Frisaro:

Marlins clear Cespedes frontrunner
MIAMI — The Marlins position as frontrunner for Yeonis Cespedes appears to be getting stronger.

Miami is exchanging contract numbers with the 26-year-old Cuban outfielder.

And on Sunday, two National League sources believe the Cubs are not seriously in the mix for Cespedes.

The buzz in the industry is Chicago’s focus is on 19-year-old Cuban sensation, Jorge Soler, who has yet to be ruled a free agent. The figure the Cubs are believed to be willing to spend on Soler (according to two sources) is $27.5 million. The number of years is not known.

Sources indicate the Marlins are clearly the team most likely to sign Cespedes.

Miami appears willing to pay in the $30-35 million range for Cespedes. But they have not offered as much as $40 million for six years.

Didn't Cespedes initially have a couple of meetings scheduled last week, but only met with us?

If that's the case then maybe we are really the only team that interested in him and we are the team he is most interested in; sure seems like the case.

[Miamarlin21]

I am gonna feel real bad for Boni once they sign Cespedes. Even though he'll likely be the opening-day center fielder, it'll only be a matter of months before he's back to the bench.

[Bobbob1313]

It's better than being exposed as being stretched as an everyday player.

[Omar]

Any word on our interest in Soler?
