Hopefully they get decent return. So much for Price "not going anywhere. " :/

I wonder what contract Cespedes will get whenever he signs. I've always thought of him as being pretty underrated

Got my fingers crossed hoping the Cubs make a play for Price instead of Hamels.

Cespedes needs to hurry up and find a somewhat permanent home. It's hard to keep up with what team he's on.

I like Cespedes. While having both is unlikely, I agree having Price on the Cubs would be awesome!

The Mets should get Cespedes.

Cespedes is a perfect fit for the Royals

Makes sense for the Tigers to steal a prospect from the Royals

I hope the Astros don't go after a rental. I'd rather see them throw a solid package together for someone young with multiple years of control.

I wouldn't mind them making a run at David price though

I've always thought of him as overrated.

Angels need a LF. Matt Joyce is hitting .188

Cespedes can protect Pujols.

Angels have an extra starting pitcher when Weaver gets back.

Matt Shoemaker and CJ Cron for Cespedes!!

Yup, I feel the same way.

However I do like David Price.

I'm sure it would be nice to trade a guy about to lose his job and a guy who just went on a tear to get his average up to .260 for Cespedes, but it's probably going to take a little more than that.

Felix
Kuma
Taijuan
Montgomery
Paxton

Nothing gets out of DD's camp. I don't buy any of the sources at all.

I do agree they need to sell but I don't buy these reports at all.

Agreed. And is cespedes gets traded ges coming right back next year.

That's because Taijuan is just now hitting his stride, Paxton and Kuma have been hurt all year, and Montgomery just came up.

I agree, it's been stated that Cespedes loves playing here and playing with Miguel, if he left I would fully expect us to make a run at him in the offseason. By trading Price, Cespedes, Soria, Rajai, you can rebuild in one year and just miss the playoffs this year. This move is necessary for the long term future.

Although price is great, I hope a team doesn't break the prospect bank to get a rental... Thinking about Oakland here giving up Russell and others to get a couple of pitchers who didn't even factor into to the lose of one game that kept them out of the playoffs. I like the new playoff system, but it's important for wild card teams to remember you can't sell out for a chance at the playoffs that hinges on a single game.

Wont believe it until i see it, but if we do sell, i would love to see us build a package for one of the mets arms such as syndergaard.

Here's what I think they SHOULD do (they won't though)

Price to the Dodgers for Van Slyke, Guerrero, and either Ethier or Crawford (with salary relief).

Cespedes to the M's for Paxton

In the offseason sign an ace.

They can't give up and rebuild IMO while they still have Miggy VMart and Kinsler, they need to go for it next year, so they should trade for big league talent.

They probably can only get a B/B+ prospect for each of them since both of their contracts run out in 2015.

Perhaps they will package of bunch of expiring contracts together and get one top prospect.

They can definitely get one top-tier prospect for a half-season of Price from a team in win-now mode. Look at the prices that other teams have paid for similar rentals in the past couple years. If the Cubs can get Russell and McKinney for a 1.5 year rental of Samardzija and 0.5 of Hammel, and the Sox can get an extra year of Cespedes and a high draft pick for Lester, I have to imagine Price can fetch one stud prospect.

That Dodgers package is awful.
