Cashman spills beans on 'significant offer' to Cano

Is Robinson Cano really considered a leader on the Yankees? Honest question.

Yeah. I thought for sure that ARod was the one they want to emulate.

Make your significant offer......and if he doesn't accept it move on.Yankee fans are tired of begging and overpaying guys who've already hit their prime.....its a stupid practice.If they want to come/stay, they will...if they want to move on, fine. We can use the 20 mil per on multiple players

At this point, I really believe that the Yankees have no intention of retaining Cano next year. They made Cano a decent yet below market offer which they knew Cano would reject.

Cashman's just greasing the wheels for next offseason so he can tell the fan base "well, we tried to keep him here".

Let the bidding war between the Dodgers and Angels begin.

It' never good to give a guy on the wrong side of 30 a $200 million dollar contract. We'll see what the market will be for giving Cano a $200 million dollar contract.

The Red Sox and Yankees have learned their lessons. LA has to be nearing the point that those teams are tapped out. Chicago is still years from competing so why sign a 30+ player to a massive deal? Who's going to jump out with an $200 million dollar deal they will regret?

There are two teams in Chicago. Neither would be stupid enough to give this guy a $200 contract.

I dunno. $200 sounds like a steal! ;P

Boston needs to throw the kitchen sink at this guy.

No need to type another word, also, my mistake emphasizes he isn't worth it. That's it...I'm sticking with that.

Good at baseball? Good in what sense?
