And theres no way that they would want to leak that they have a deal set in place with multiple teams. That stuff does not go over well with other GMs Sure they would. It's perfectly reasonable if they are honest up front and say "hey we are getting all our offers that we are willing to accept and then asking Stanton where he wants to go." Given his NTC it is better business. Can you imagine the ClusterF if a Lucroy situation happened with him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrubes20 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Have we seen what the rest of the St. Louis offer is? I like Ramos a lot more than Alcantara and I’ve read everywhere that the Cards’ offer is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 According to Rosenthal, Stanton doesn't want to join the Giants or the Cardinals lol (I'd post a link, but it's behind a paywall on the athletic) . But he says that Stanton's thinking is "fluid" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mission27 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 You really have to respect a guy who feels like the Giants and Cardinals aren't good enough for him due to size of market / competitiveness. Two most successful NL franchise ever and neither are bad per se and San Francisco is a huge market but too small for Giancarlo. He's like the anti Shohei. I love it.

He's essentially he'll only go to four teams: 3 of which represented their leagues in one of the past two World Series. There's only a handful of teams who can afford him. He can't have his cake and eat it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAS22 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Stanton and Crane are tight so this isn't surprising whatsoever. Doubt Crane is willing to take on the necessary 80-90% of the contract though that Miami seems to be requiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he says that Stanton's thinking is "fluid" The situation from the beginning is Stanton waiting for the Dodgers situation to be a hard, hard no. Then he will simply pick from whoever is left. He wants the Dodgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I'm honestly starting to think that Stanton isn't moved by the start of the season unless he surrenders to StL or SF. The most I've heard from the teams that he's mentioned is that the Dodgers have shown some very minor interest, but seem content on not really pursuing it. The other three I haven't heard anything about having interest in Stanton. Now, that can change in a hurry, but I don't think it will. I think it's very possible that Stanton opens the season in a Marlins uni if he's not on the Cards or Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
