Can someone provide a link to his instagram account? Do the Cardinals have a history of bringing in Cuban ballplayers like the Sox do?

His account suddenly went private.

His account went private but it does not mean you can't see his profile photo. It seems like it is a last ditch ploy to drive up the Cardinals offer but I honestly take it as at worst a good sign.

This is totally an accident, he was just wearing the hat cuz the Sox gave it to him for free.

So this feels just like 7/31.

This article says the Reds are likely out....previous one said the same about Padres in LA Times.

 

Quiet on the Houston front.

LOL you seriously have convinced yourself to see it as a negotiating ploy?

I don't think an agent would let him go that far as a ploy. But he is a 19 year old kid, he probably has no idea how many people keep refreshing their internet to see if his decision is official So he could be playing. He might not sign today or tomorrow or for a couple of weeks and have pictures of himself in several hats.

 

But, I feel better about having him in a White Sox hat now than another team's.

I keep reminding myself that 19 year olds are immature. Therefore the instagram photo change could absolutely be a negotiating ploy.

At 19 I was a f***ing idiot. It's amazing most of these guys are as professional mature as they are.

I hope we get answers today, but I am sure wherever he signs, he is going to have to take a physical first, and that can cause a delay especially here since it has been raining all day.

Didn't realize Aledmys Diaz was Cuban...surprised Moncada and Abreu aren't getting hounded by the Chicago media for a comment or insight. Or Ynoa.

If he was sporting a Cardinals hat, there is no one here who would think it was a negotiating ploy.

His account was private before.

I think I just agreed with you for the 2nd or 3rd time in history.

Then how'd I look at all his private s*** last night?

I saw all the pictures last night and up until 2 minutes before my post.

You guys expect a 19 year old to be a master at negotiating for millions of dollars in such a creative way?

 

I highly doubt his agent told him to post a pic of him in a white sox hat to up the offer, come on

 

Either he made his decision in signing with the sox or ot was just an innocent coincidence

Also surprised this guy hasn't been interviewed recently on Robert.

If you were following him before he made it private you are all good right? I can still see all his stuff.

All Robert and no White Sox makes hi8is a sad poopy panda.

You were looking at his privates last night?

Are we 100% sure that the instagram photo of him in the Sox hat is legit? It is an absolutely great sign if on the level and hopefully confirms the Passan report that he has already decided on a team.
