I think Cespedes goes back to Mets as well.

 

Cuddyer retiring helps this out.

WTH is taking so long?

 

$$$$$

At some point, these three guys have to realize that there is a big incentive to not be the last one to sign. Teams are taking themselves out of the market quicker than nine figure deals are being offered. If I were the Sox, I'd be be perfectly willing to say one one that they have offers out to the others.

The longer this goes without signings, the more likely the market comes back to reasonable. I don't feel like Heyward's deal was a market definer, but rather an outlier based heavily on advanced defensive metrics, and I bet there are many GM's around the league that agree. Otherwise you'd think those 3 remaining big fish would've been able to basically pick and choose their deals from those that missed out on Heyward. Of course, if the market does deflate, the list of suitors grows and who knows where these guys might end up.

Chuck is probably saying that based on the Gordon possibility.

 

Prediction:

Gordon signs with the Royals before Friday.

Upton signs with the Sox before Jan. 1.

 

 

I fear if we dont give Gordon a pretty enticing offer he wont pick us over the Royals.

 

Although the good news is in 2017 the Royals look like they are going to have a pretty good purge of talent.

I kind of have a feeling that Garfien is just talking out of his ass.

Yeah, that didn't really seem like a source-based tweet. Just speculation
