BlackSox13 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 "The representatives of free agent righty Jeff Samardzija are telling teams that the hurler already has at least one $100MM offer on the table, Jayson Stark of ESPN.com reports on Twitter. Needless to say, that’s a huge number for a pitcher coming off a down year, but speaks to his popularity among scouts and executives." Per MLBTR I'll take a guess and say SF made the offer.

If an AL team decides to give him over 100M the second he signs with them is the second that team made a huge mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the idea of it, but if it doesn't work out then it is going to set us back for years. Where is it going to set us back to? The problem is that we are already in that spot. Yes it is scary to trade your proven commodities for unknowns which is why you need to get more value in return then you are giving up, but unless this org makes some bold moves the team is going to be stuck in 3-4 place in the division for the rest of the time we have Abreu, Q, and Sale under contract.

I hear you, and I'm not saying I don't want them to. He is just so valuable that I don't see how we could get a return that is worth it. Everyone knows the league is getting younger and younger so teams are more reluctant to give up a lot of their top prospects for proven veterans. I hope I am proven wrong.

I hope so too, I see what the Red Sox just gave up for a closer and that makes me feel like the market is in place to capitalize on Q's value.

Agree, I don't care for Frazier much. He had a hot streak, but is sub standard defensively and outside of getting hot, is not much more than an average bat.

cabiness42 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I have confidence that Hahn won't send Q packing for anything less than a deal that would seem tremendously one-sided in his favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
