Somebody will end up giving him 8-10 years at $250mil.

I just hope its not the White Sox.

His gifted agent, GENIUS!

They know who he is and about how much, no need to out the price tag out there.

Just limited your market. Nice work

Great player, but my guess is he'll get no more than 6 x $24m. His official age is 31 (this October), so he's probably 34.

I think it makes sense to hype your client, and if you can get him above value, it's going to bring more clients. But Jay-Z is making a mistake here. I don't think he will even get $250mm. I wouldn't be shocked if the contract is $200mm. It's just going to make Jay-Z look bad when he doesn't get anywhere near $300mm.

Trout is worth $300mm, Harper probably too. Not Cano.

Teams are getting an extra cut of the TV contracts next year, ~$30M per team. That probably has been factored into a few teams already and escalated some signings. Still, it only takes 1 drunk owner... i guess he stays in NY, in the 8/$27 range

With where the Yankees are, I don't think they can afford to let him go.

Depending on other offers tendered (or not), it might not seem as far apart in January as it does now.

The Cubs should wait til Cano tears his ACL, then offer him that deal.

All agents do this. I'm sure you remember the A-Rod and Pujols negotiations.

Robinson Cano you coming with me...

He has really nice numbers playing one of the lower impact defensive positions in the game. I have no idea what that is worth these days

Historically 2nd basemen (not on steroids) dramatically decline after 32. I would pass but considering Pedroia just got $100M someone will give Cano at least $200M.

Dodgers need a second baseman. Should have no problem getting money from them. Back up plan would be the Mariners if he only cared about money.

I know the Dodgers print money but even they have to have a limit unless they win the WS.

I would rather spend that $23 million a year on 2, maybe 3, players that would help me win.

2B is a tough position to get a ton of production out of. Which is why his value is higher than if he were an OF. Believe me, I want the Cubs to focus almost all of their free agent dollars on pitching in the next few years. Especially given the position player prospects the Cubs have. But it is hard to not give Cano a passing thought. 2B has not been good for the Cubs.

Maybe, if that is where Baez ends up, it'll be different.

Right now in about 450 more AB's,Cano has 16 more HR's then Donnie Murphy. He is batting .313,Murph is at .259. So if Murphy played 2nd all year he might have about the same number of HR's for about 29 million dollars cheaper.

I agree.

Mr Pasta would have been better off comparing Murphy to Mike Trout.

What I am comparing is dollars for value. No shit,Cano is better then Murphy. My question is he 29 million dollars a season better. I'm pretty sure the answer is no.
