i would not want cruz for the money hes gonna demand

i guess a 2year deal wouldnt be too bad, but anything more and hes a huge risk.


I think he's going to want 3-5 years @ 7.5 - 9 a year.

I have not a clue, I was thinking after that whole 50game suspension last year, he might be a little bit cheaper.

I also think Cruz lost his demanding room after getting busted with PED's plus his advancing age. He's not in the corner to demand money like a Trout or someone.

This.

Though I wouldn't mind having him.

He could fill the DH or LF role, who knows...

this is roughly what ive been hearing. only thing ive seen online lately in terms of updating.

Nelson Cruz. Cruz rejected a qualifying offer and is reportedly looking for a deal that pays $16MM or more a year, which may be a lot to player with limited defensive ability and scary offensive indicators. Cruz wants the Rangers to offer a three-year deal, but so far, they're only offering two. The Mariners continue to be connected to Cruz, even after adding Corey Hart and Logan Morrison.

O's won't pay 16m for him. Shit, O's wouldn't probably pay 16m for anyone. Morons though....Bundy is going to ask that, Davis if he replicates any of last year, and of course Machado.

Machado will be the only one who gets that kind of money.
