A decision is expected before Sunday. If you notice this guy post his tweets right after a national writers does

nats 5-yr bid believed for about $100M said to be paid out over many years, a la scherzer. obvs would decrease value a bit https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/690530706913632256

Sources: Mets, Cespedes discussing an opt-out clause after the 1st year of a three-year deal. Would allow him to test market again Fall '16. https://twitter.com/Buster_ESPN/status/690523949478907908 For Cespedes, 3-year deal/opt-out in '16 would give him chance to cash in next fall. For Mets, would limit financial obligation. https://twitter.com/Buster_ESPN/status/690524439113527296 Expectation among some parties in the talks is that Cespedes will make his choice in the next 24 to 48 hours. https://twitter.com/Buster_ESPN/status/690524696950001664

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jan 22, 2016 -> 06:45 AM) I can see it now. Cespedes signs with either Yanks or Nats, and then that team will come to Sox to solve their dilemma; that is, take an aging, overpaid, excess outfielder off their hands for prospects. If it's the Nats, they need to get rid of Jayson Werth. If it's the Yanks, Gardner must go. Enter RH. Werth has a full no trade close so its unlikely he gets moved. Plus he's going to be 37 this and has 2 years left on contract at 21 million aav. No way Sox would go after him.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Jan 21, 2016 -> 01:48 PM) The Sox will go more than 3 years for their own players. They are worth more to the team than a new player. But can you honestly see the Sox giving out a long and enormous amount of money for their owen players. Can you see them giving out almost 30 million a year for 5 plus years for sale?

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Jan 21, 2016 -> 01:46 PM) Mibelt Rodriguez ‏@MibeltRodriguez 35s36 seconds ago Developing: The #Nats have offered a 5 years, $100-105 MM deal to OF Yoenis Cespedes. #MLB If you watch his tweets, he tweets stuff like this right after other people do.

They are going to need body guards at sox fest this year. Might be worth it just to go to watch the fans lay into the front office

The biggest surprise now is if #Nats don't sign Cespedes. They appear to be the only team interested in giving him longer than 3-year deal. https://twitter.com/BNightengale/status/690256731805474816 Rubbing it in the sox face

Sad part is Sox aren't willing to give out large contracts only puts in prospectus that the likely hood of them not keeping sale around and will probably have to end up trading him and Abreu after the 3 yr window.

Hopefully today we are either put out of our misery or going to be happy as hell. Another day of 5 stages of grief lol

Smart money says cespedes gets a 5-yr deal (at least). Plenty of interest there. https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/690147759018643457
