    Default [Signing] - Yoenis Cespedes signs with the Mets

    Signing may be too light a term here. Breaking the bank may be more accurate.
    Cespedes signed a 4 year $110 Million dollar deal, making him the second highest paid position player in baseball (behind Miggy Cabrera) and the highest paid outfielder ever.

    Was hearing two days ago that the Giants and the Nets were front runners because the Mets didn't want to cough up the money. Wonder what changed.

    That Bruce pairing is looking a little more likely now.

    A much longer deal. Likely similar money.

    Harper will get overpaid because he had the insane one yr, and very good yrs every other yr. But the market will help lower his dollar figure as of now because of the possible superstars and really good players on the FA market in 2018.

    Harper, Machado, Kershaw (Dodgers are insanely in debt), Pollock, Matt Harvey (Injury tho), McCutchen, Donaldson, Adam Jones, Cruz, Brantley, Dozier, Segura, Blackmon, DJ LeMahieu, Wainwright, Happ, Kimbrel, Andrew Miller, Drew Smyly, Cody Allen, Britton, Darvish, Familia, Kelvin Herrera, Keuchel, Shelby Miller (I think),

    Although you can probably cut 30% of those guys because they'll re-sign....YES!! It's going to be incredible.

    Even if half sign the FA class is still insane.

    The fact the Dodgers are in massive debt, it’s not far off to think Kershaw could be throwing the ball somewhere else.

    Baltimore has quite a bit of money coming off the books too, so if MAchado doesn't come back, they could be in on someone else.
