I think he is FOS but heard from a guy that does have ties to GMDM that Cubs offered 5/120 Royals offered 5/85. I just cant see those dollars but who knows.

So we are to believe that the Cubs' opening offer was for more per-season than the Marlins gave Giancarlo Stanton?

Yeah, no.

HA HA,thanks for the laugh!


Talking about over paying and if they were so stupid to do this, this would open up a major can of worms for players across the board. Every player will use that contract as a measuring stick to position their own contract.

I would be surprised if Gordon gets over 75 mil.

I think the floor is 4/75, however there are other similar players on the market that could effect how this plays out. I'd hate to see the Royals sign him for even 4/80 - if we cant do a 3 year contract (which we most likely can't) we should move on.

Love Gordon - was there for his first at bat against the Red Sox and have loved his leadership but baseball is a business. Teams like ours can't miss on 4 year bloated contracts to pay for a defensive tooled player. The money makes the inefficiency we are tying to exploit a losing proposition.

I don't think teams are even allowed to talk to Gordon or his agent until Friday.

Correct. That would violate the CBA.

I thought the royals could talk to him exclusively until Friday and then he becomes unrestricted?
