    Cubs offer to Bregman had opt outs after the 2nd and 3rd year , not the 1st .
  2. Dfan25
    Yeah , I don’t see Cease happening . Could see Turner and Robertson .
  3. Dfan25
    I don’t care if it is short term , that’s awful . If he has a down year they are stuck with him at 40.0 on AAV . Yikes

    FWIW , in a follow up tweet , Ofman said he still be shocked if the Cubs get Bregman .

    If he is signing with the cubs I think it happens in the next 48 hours at latest . Boras has been in this situation before with Hoyer , and he probably knows the Cubs aren’t going up in years at this point . The 1st full squad workout is Friday and if Bregman wants to opt out after 2025 , I think he wants things as normal as possible with his spring training . He is in Arizona already as he lives there , so if this is going to happen , I would expect it really soon , so he can take his physical on Friday at the latest . Cubs play a regular season game really early this year . Position players have to be ready to play a full 9 innings basically in mid march . Him holding out a couple of more weeks wouldn’t be great .

    Considering the team backup at 1B as of now is Jon Berti , give me Turner . With that said , I don’t think Tuner will sign with the Cubs . There isn’t much playing time available . They will have trouble finding someone due to this .

    A couple of Bregman related notes : Buster Olney says Bregman will sign soon and likely to be with Tigers / Red Sox / Cubs Robert Murray is skeptical that Bregman will get a long term deal . Thinks final decision will be between Red Sox / Cubs / Tigers .

    Cubs considering Justin Turner if Bregman goes elsewhere

    This is from Levine’s latest article : Bregman has been seeking a six-year or seven-year deal, but the average annual value of the deal is just as important to him as the total value and length of it, sources said, I think it’s going to be very interesting to see what is more important to him, if no one gives him what he wants . Is it AAV or years ? With that said if the Cubs aren’t willing to do 4 years , I don’t think they will get him . We have conflicting reports on that front . Some are saying the Cubs offered 4 and Nightendale is saying they would do 3 max .

    This is from a couple of days ago , but Feisand doesn’t mention the Cubs as a team in on Bregman : The Blue Jays, Tigers and Red Sox still seem to be in play to varying degrees, but unlike some of Scott Boras’ other clients, Bregman appears to have no desire to sign a short-term deal with opt outs. Maybe they decided it wasn’t worth it and stop pursuing him ?

    Blue Jays GM said any add they do from this point on will likely be via trade ( FWIW . As long as the Cubs offer is the highest on AAV , they have a chance here . It could take about one more week of waiting , but I think they have a chance . All this I want 6 years talk , could be Boras trying to get the Cubs to meet in between ( 5 years ) I don’t think the Cubs will go 5 , but even at 4 / 120 it could get done .

    Cubs made an offer to Moncada ) 3 million
  15. Dfan25
    Maybe Boras wanted to do Alonso 1st , to see if the Blue Jays get crazy on Bregman now ?
  16. Dfan25
    Yeah , Keegan will also be DFA at some point as well , probably at the end of spring training , if there aren’t any injuries
  17. Dfan25
    My guess is Zastrynsny gets DFA and in terms of the 26 man roster , if no injuries , Merryweather and Asad are in danger
  18. Dfan25
    Yeah , as soon as he got DFA , I knew they weren’t getting Robertson . Robertson will get 10-12 . Brasier I believe comes at 4.5

    Optimistic cubs fans on Twitter are saying , this means Tigers know they are out on Bregman
  22. Dfan25
    Doesn’t look like. Cease to Mets is all that likely for now , due to asking price
  23. Dfan25
    My guess this is a Boras trick , but you never know .
  24. Dfan25
    Yeah , I think there is a good chance they trade for Brasier and forget about Robertson . If they do that , then 1 of Merryweather / Asad isn’t making the opening day roster ( if no injuries ).
  25. Dfan25
    Hopefully Robertson doesn’t sign before the Padres trade Cease .
