Zobrist To Cubs, 4/56

Featured Replies

Per Nitengale Twitter. Mets presumably the ones who made that offer.

Every other writer has said it's not true...we will see tonight as he's supposed to choose

Nightengale is full of s*** for sure on this one. Nobody is giving Zobrist 20M per year. Seriously Knightengale, put the bottle down and stop hitting the crack pipe while you're at it.

Nightengale must hate it that no one can spell his last name correctly.

I almost feel like my dog can fart in the ear of @BNightengale and he would source it as fact. #WinterMeetings #MLBWinterMeetings #MLB

Possibility of Starlin Castro to the Yankees with the Cubs signing Zobrist is popping up all over twitter

Who the hell would the Cubs get from the Yankees?

or Miller

I'm going to guess he may get 16 per thou, but can't imagine 4 years

Enough teams want him. 4 years wouldn't be shocking.

I just noticed that. Two posts back to back no less. I fixed mine. :lol:

 

Really hope it's not Miller

Told Gardner is NOT part of conversations with #Cubs about Castro

It seems like that is a given for every deal now. You have to give a player at least 1-5 more years than you would realistically anticipate production just to get them to sign. The leverage for quality players is unbelievable.

I hope the Cubs give him 4 years 60-70 million.

I can't imagine Castro getting back anything of value.

Source: Zobrist choosing between #Mets and #Cubs. Comparable offers. Only question is which team he wants to join. #Nationals on periphery.

The Mets are closer and he would start.

He would start with the Cubs too?

If offers are similar, I don't see how he doesn't pick the Cubs. He used to play for Maddon and is an Illinois native. Plus the flight from Chicago is a bit shorter to Nashville than the one from New York. Seems like a no-doubter to me.

Hey if the Cubs want to pay a 1ish WAR player around 60 or over million dollars for 4 years they can be my guest.

Please please please go to the Cubs!!!

Everybody thinks Zobrist is the glue guy who gives you a WS title. 20 million a year at his age is ridiculous. I could see the Mets giving him that much, though.

I think he still has another good 2-3 years left.

Cubs land Zobrist according to Ken Rosenthal
