July 31, 201510 yr Fake @Ken_Rosenthal account got me and @ScottMillerBbl on Cespedes-to-Mets deal. My bad. https://twitter.com/philgrogers/status/627200659515908096
July 31, 201510 yr I heard "Cespedes traded" on MLB Network and my heart skipped a beat. Then saw it was a highlight from 2014. f***ing MLB Network.
July 31, 201510 yr QUOTE (RaySox @ Jul 31, 2015 -> 02:35 PM) Maybe Tigers leaked that White Sox aren't favorites to get them to up the price. Who else would?
July 31, 201510 yr Bruce Levine @MLBBruceLevine 47s48 seconds ago WhSox pressing forward on Cespedes or Upton clubs asking for Frank Montes or Tim Anderson -no go on him. EJohnson also pitcher of interest

July 31, 201510 yr I'd deal Johnson no problem. Tim Anderson no. Montas probably. I think Montas is going to end up as a reliever anyway.

EJohnson also pitcher of interest Cespedes and Upton aren't worth top 100 prospects. Sorry Tigers, stop being dicks.

July 31, 201510 yr Yeah, Montas could be fantastic but very high risk at this point to drop in value. Still think he'd be a dynamite reliever.
July 31, 201510 yr Do we have a reliever named Montes instead of Montas...we can do the reverse of the White Sox/LA Jeff Berry/Barry fiasco for KW and slip him into the paperwork instead?
July 31, 201510 yr Like what was said on MLB Network, Tigers really have no option but to trade Cespedes to get some value for him. I think we trade him for Erik Johnson and I would kind of be upset about that.
July 31, 201510 yr 20 minutes. Just got my wisdom teeth extracted this morning. Not feeling the pain at the moment
July 31, 201510 yr If the price for a Cespedes/Upton is Anderson, Montas, or Johnson i'd sit this one out and add a bat in August. Not worth it for a rental.

I think we trade him for Erik Johnson and I would kind of be upset about that. The rest of MLB knows that too, which is why they aren't offering much for him.

July 31, 201510 yr anthony fenech @anthonyfenech 1m1 minute ago Yoenis Cespedes is in the Tigers' lineup posted in the clubhouse. Rajai Davis is, too.

And if he's Wade Davis/Andruw Miller/Herrera impact level...that's still worth a ton in today's environment. We have a lot of pieces down there now, but nobody with electric stuff. Not even Nate Jones at 100% health because his fastball was so straight (and Greg didn't like his mechanics!). Apparently Montas' offspeed stuff (knuckle curve for one) is much better.
