Darn. I bet Cespedes is next for them.

The Cubs have signed a few Cuban players this off season..

Either one would be nice. If we strike out on both Ill be mad as hell.

Damnit Cubs. The Sox REALLY need to get one of these 3 guys. We are 0/1 so far.

$7 million for Gerardo Concepcion is just wacky. Shows inflation of pre new-CBA dynamics.

I have no problem at all with the Sox missing out these three Cuban players. Their price tags are going to be way too high.

Ugh, this sucks. The time when they probably actually want to spend money on these guys the market goes nuts to get ahead of the new CBA.

 

FANTASTIC. f***.

And then KW will probably say it's hard to spend a dollar when you have 50 cents.

When you have Concepcion who isn't nearly on the level of Soler and Cespedes getting $7M and a major league deal, I'm afraid s*** is going to get silly for the other two.

That's crazy $7 million and a possible major league deal for Concepcion whose being considered at best #4 or #5 starting pitcher. Soler price just went way UPPPPPP. Soler will easily get $20 million.

Agreed and he is only 18. Did Viciedo sign a major league deal?

IN all seriousness, what did you expect?

I know, but I did buy into the hype when we seemed to be linked to some of these guys. Have no more expectations as this pitcher was the one I thought we had a chance to sign.

I concur.

International scouts not sure how Concepcion could command $7MM. Finesse lefty, lots of 86-90 on the gun lately.

No.

 

I thought he was added to the 40 after he was signed. Isn't that a major league deal? Maybe I'm mistaken.

Soler was always gonna get $20M +.
