Im bout to go to sleep and first I saw of this. Might be bullshit but it fits with the Sox MO. That’s a big bet though.

Evan Longoria got an extension after like 7 games played

Only thing I saw is that they already sent him to the minors...must be afraid he's going to tear it up and make their service time decision look even worse.

If you're Eloy, and that tweet is 100% accurate, you sign the hell out of it.

Don't do it Eloy, it's a (((trap))).

Who is the source?

Is it 85 million with incentives?

Fuck the Sox. This is to quench the Sox fan taste with the highest contract given out, and saving face with losing out on Manny.

As a player here, I don't know how you can turn down 8 years at 50 million or really an long term contract.

The difference in Leveon Bell and this is Bell already racked up 15-20 million in the NFL. Unless agents front prime prospects money, I doubt Eloy has 100K to his name.

Didn't the Cubs sign him for like $3M?

Philly did something similar last year with one of their top prospects (Kingery). If Eloy signs, figure that he will be recalled immediately (replace someone on DL).

It will be tough for Eloy to pass up generational wealth, given the ability of both organizations he's been in to develop All-Star hitters.

I don’t know if any of this is true or not but I’m putting my best guy on trailing Jim Thome’s every move the next few days.

I've blocked out the Cubs having signed both him and Torres in the same year. Didn't happen.

I hear ya, if they didn't get blinded by Happ- Schwarber ..this could have been something really rare.

They probably dont win the World Series without dealing Torres though.

They just had some breaking news on ESPN radio from Jeff Passen that the White Sox and Eloy are in the final stages of hammering out a long-term deal

8 yrs between 65 and 80 million .

The Sox know how to take care of young talent. Well done Jerry.

Don’t we have him for like 6 anyway? So like a 2 year extension?

Man he better not fucking blow.

Why would a guy like Eloy do an extension at this point...unless it was for crazy money?

Surely it will have some opt out deal, where if he is the monster some think he can get an even bigger payday

I think the point you last two boobs is to not drag him through arbitration and all that. get the extra time and play him this opening day. Avi's replacement.

I'd say $70(ish) million is kinda sorta crazy money for somebody who hasn't even made their MLB debut yet.
