How bout 8 years for 8000000 for choo. Fuckin baseball players make too much anyway. Celeb status shouldn't come with over 100000 million. I'd pay to have the recognition they have

Thanks Justin. We need to bite the bullet before were left holding last year's bag.

Baltimore is a place Cruz would be willing to go.

why would BWI offer 4 years? Good grief.

According to Kevin Towers, RH power is rare.

He'd play the field there, I'd reckon. Something JD couldn't promise if we sign Choo.

In an interview on MLB Network (Twitter link), Dodgers GM Ned Colletti attemped to throw water on Matt Kemp trade rumors, saying that L.A. is higher on the outfielder than anyone.

All that I get out of this is he is trying to raise the price. He definitely is available people. I wish GM's would just refrain from talking to the public haha

Oh I have no idea. I'll say it again, usually I don't get details about an FA signing until a deal is close. They did meet though. Hell, they might still be meeting because I don't have any updates about choo

Yeah I read that, and didn't believe it at all.

An outfield of markakis, jones, and Cruz is pretty solid offensively, although markakis has cooled off over the years

Wasn't me, Brah. But I imagine he meant Baltimore when he said BWI. Maybe he's a pilot or something. Frequent flyer perhaps

I wonder what cruz thinks about baltimore

I'd love Markakis to be a Ranger

At 60+ it won't matter. I doubt we match that. I'm feeling less enthusiastic about next year.

You guys remember when I used to bash on MLBTR? Well, I've actually grown quite fond of it lately. But I will say, half of the stuff they post just seems like pointless rumors that I could make up.

"Hey, Zack Greinke is being shopped. Dodgers are looking to unload a bit of salary in hopes of signing Tanaka. The Rangers and Indians are the most likely fit because they need a shortstop and asdrubal cabrera and EA are both available. 2 mystery teams involved."

I dont care what any of you say, that is believable right there lol. Just a lot of really safe statements.

 

[Broseidon]

He would know half the damn team already.

Wonder if he's seen The Wire?

 

[terpsfball09]

Baltimore takes all of our trash and makes it treasure. If I were JD I wouldnt answer the phone unless they say bundy is on the table.

According to a source, the Rangers have a seven-year offer on the table to free agent outfielder Shin-Soo Choo and he is giving it serious consideration. The offer is less than the $153 million deal that Jacoby Ellsbury signed with the Yankees this off-season but is still strong enough for Choo to consider.

The Rangers had a two-hour meeting with Chin prior to the Winter Meetings and gave him a strong sales pitch about coming to Texas. Choo turned down a six-year offer from the Rangers, according to the source. But now it appears the Rangers have gone seven years and could have a good chance to sign him at possibly around $130 million.

The Rangers have not commented on their negotiations with Choo so far at the Winter Meetings. Privately club officials have suggested they are not going to be able to sign Choo. But that may be changing.

Rangers have offer to Choo that?s getting serious consideration « Postcards From Elysian Fields
