The Stromboli Jabronis pushed hard but were unable to sign a deal with cano.

You're not though. I also highly doubt that $175 was their max offer anyhow.
How do you know I'm not? Have you been spying on me, Mr. Sanjuro?!

I think we're seeing Desperate Nintendo on the baseball side of things. :-(
I'm 99.99% sure that cashman is Cashman
Yeah :\ I mean a big free agent signing was pretty necessary, I'm just hoping the signing itself will eventually attract other players, it's much bigger than just cano himself

If Cano was 25-27 years old I could see that not being a total waste for Yankees to come closer to M's deal(for Mariners it kind of makes since), but with MLB being strict with PEDS it's gonna be much harder for the all 35+ superstars to produce in later years.
Yankees are in much better place now try fill in other holes, Cano is superstar for sure so big loss for yanks, he was not that clutch a hitter though.

So this is the reason for your attempted coup of Yankees council.
Cashman destroyed all his computers after that trashy film Moneyball.
I'd like to say "cool!", but I've been burned too many times. Least he'll probably be solid in the outfield.

Can't wait for the insufferable "Grandyman" posts from Frankman.
The moment you gave J.Ellsbury 153M it became disrespectful, and Stephen A Smith said that a trusted source told him the Yankees were only going 7/170.
I couldn't care less about players "hustling" to first base. Gardenhire got JJ Hardy traded because he wasn't "fast" enough. Cano is an elite player.
The difference is that Pujols was/is a first baseman. Cano can probably shift to 1B or corner outfield at some point before he ends up DHing and play average or above average in the field. I'd be way more comfortable giving an up the middle guy a big money deal than a 1B.
taijuan is worth so much more tahn cruz it's not even fair
Can the Mets take John Sterling as part of the Granderson deal?

Hell naw, no one replaces the great Howie Rose.
Cruz is a free agent.
Oh yeah I forgot lol!!
I'd just like to be able to listen to a game and know what is going on.

It's a delivery form the Ellsbury dough boy
He would have gotten $4 million more in AAV than Ellsbury and that's not insignificant. And I trust Mark Feinsand and Joel Sherman a heck of a lot more when it comes to baseball than I do the joke that is Stephen A Smith.
I can not comment on rumors and speculation.

Personally, I can't wait for their incoming 70-win season with no Matt Harvey.

The Mets still need a new shortstop to replace Tejada.
Stephen Drew!
My point is, you're willing to over pay for Ellsbury but not for Cano?
You're willing to over pay for someone you don't need and not for someone you do?
While true still doesn't mean Cano deserves 10 years/200+. If I was cashman, I would've given him 7/215 just so I won't to give the additional 3 years.
7/175 is already an overpay. The only two players to to make more than $25 mill last year were Cliff Lee and Arod.
