If $ is not the end all be all, yes. If he decides he truly wants to be in CHICAGO, yes
If $ is his motivating force in negotiations, no. He will be a NyY, LAD, or CHC.
I think the Sox have a legit shot if the contract is between, $100-$125 million. But again other teams will pay it, he will want to be here for us to sign him. Not outbidding anyone IMO.
I take it he has said something about wanting to be in Chicago? I have some Cubs fans who are totally convinced he's going to be a Cub as of tomorrow.
Is there any particular reason to think he may WANT to play for the Sox?
