Yoenis Cespedes: Signs w/ A's for 4/36

Give me Stanton.

Definitely.

Give me Stanton.

Samson had said the money they were looking to spend now had no effect on money they would look to use to extend Stanton.

[Namaste]

A's got him but at least we knew Marlins were the CLEAR favorite.

LOL @ 9 million a year. And holy wow that it was the A's of all teams.

[Bobbob1313]

They've spent big money internationally in recent years.

They've spent big money internationally in recent years.

I wonder why that is?
As of right now, Cespedes seems to be drawing plenty of comparisons to Adam Jones. All in all, I guess that's fine, but it's not exactly something that wow's you in terms of being undervalued and that's assuming Cespedes even reaches the Adam Jones projections.

I wonder if Oakland has people working for them who maybe project Cespedes to turn into a star or something. And I wonder what would make them think that, if that's the case.

[Chewford]

He's gonna be so disappointed when he finds out he's not actually working for Brad Pitt.

[TheMendozaLine]

Now that he's officially spurned us, I can say . . .

[jOOj]

He wishes.

I still see the swing of bad Andruw Jones combined with bad Adrien Beltre, with less contact.

Cespedes downgraded his home ballpark.

[Swifty]

On Soler: I'd rather the one claiming to be 19 than the one claiming to be 26. I'm not keen on 20 million+ for a major project, but then I wasn't really ever in favor of Cespedes to begin with.

Sources: Yankees have serious interest on OFer Jorge Soler, among many teams. Cubs are not close to signing Soler, as has been reported.

[Miamarlin21]

Oakland or Kansas City will sweep in. Maybe Houston too.

[Jorge18]

Expos are going to get him.

[Mainge]

Samson said "I've heard of Soler but we have not seen him or made any inroads so no."

Don't know if the no was in response to if he's a target or what but it sounds like it's not happening.
