December 14, 201510 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 03:59 PM) Cardinals? Yes. Which I find hard to believe considering they offered Heyward 200 million.

Gordon to the Cardinals. O's resign Parra and Davis. White Sox sign Upton.

December 14, 201510 yr The Cards did win 100 games, though they had really remarkable luck. They're still a match for the Cubs and probably better than the Pirates with what they have. The O's won't pony up for Upton, Angelos makes JR look like a spendthrift. I think its basically Angels, White Sox, Tigers, maybe Rangers, Nationals and maybe the Royals (if they get real crazy) as the OF market competition.

I really dont see the Rangers spending on OF help. They have Choo and Hamilton out there now, need a spot for Gallo, have Brinson and Mazara in the minors...they just have too much to see them spending on OF.

The O's offered 7/150M to Davis so they have the money and an opening in the outfield to go with the opening at first base left by Davis. I think the O's are very much in on one of the FA outfielders.

December 14, 201510 yr I remember reading that they made a special exception for Davis, because he is Angelos pet favorite or something. Point being, I doubt they offer that money to Upton. Davis or bust for them (or bring back Parra).
December 14, 201510 yr I'm guessing Gordon and Buehrle to Cards to replace Heyward and Lackey. Maybe a different SP but I think Upton and Cespedes are left for Angels and Sox. Let's not bid against ourselves now.
December 14, 201510 yr QUOTE (southside hitman @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 04:03 PM) +1. Hope you are right. I'd be good with Upton or Cespedes. But I know Cespedes wants and will probably get a big payday
December 14, 201510 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 04:17 PM) They may have offered the money but it got pulled off the table for some reason. O's don't have enough for Parra and Davis, already gave Davis a deadline.
December 14, 201510 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 14, 2015 -> 04:17 PM) They may have offered the money but it got pulled off the table for some reason. But they have the money and are willing to spend it. I wouldn't count the O's out on any of the FA outfielders.

That deal never made sense for them. They should have signed Aoki or anyone else instead.
