October 8, 201312 yr I think it will be a bigger contract that most on this board think. I'm guessing: Red Sox 6 years $90 million
October 9, 201312 yr I've had "The Price is Right" theme song going on in my head as I've read all these guesses. Let's hope it's Rick Hahn who ends up running up to hug the stuffing out of Drew Carey when all is said and done with Abreu!

October 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (whitesox901 @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 02:57 PM) When are they going to announce whom he signed with? When he signs with someone
October 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 03:58 PM) When he signs with someone Ah, I was under the impression they already was and that they were waiting to announce it.
October 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (whitesox901 @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 03:01 PM) Ah, I was under the impression they already was and that they were waiting to announce it. I don't think so. I think they wanted teams to submit silent bids so they could get a gauge interest in him and get some idea of what they should ask. They also want to know which teams will actually seriously be involved with him. If they just accepted the silent bid, there'd be nothing stopping teams from colluding at that point and saying "We'll give $1 mill per year for 20 years" or whatever. In fact, I'm not sure he's even a citizen or if he has his work visa yet, either of which are required to sign him.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 07:37 AM) White Sox, 6/$72. That's close . Still looking.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 10:53 AM) White Sox, 6 years, $65 million That's pretty good.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 12:10 PM) Because of the good guesses have been taken..... Brewers 6 years $66M Closest on money but wrong team.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 11:04 PM) Closest on money but wrong team. God damnit for me trying to be different. I truly believed it was the Rangers or White Sox.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:55 PM) God damnit for me trying to be different. I truly believed it was the Rangers or White Sox. I had Rangers 6/63 so I wasn't too far off either.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 11:01 PM) That's close . Still looking. I'm content with my guess.
October 18, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) White Sox, 6 years, $65 million If the signing happens at the rumored numbers, this is the winner.
