Here's Your Dayan Viciedo News: White Sox to Sign Dayan Viciedo

According to major-league sources, the Sox have reached an agreement with 19-year-old third baseman Dayan Viciedo, who was declared a free agent a week ago.

Viciedo reportedly will receive a major-league contract worth about $11 million. That’s more than twice the size of the deal that brought Alexei Ramirez to the White Sox last season, and Ramirez was second in American League Rookie of the Year voting last season.

Top 10 picks are not free agents

If they were, the money woud increase significanty. Its a good signing.

He's pretty much equal to an early first-round draft pick

Cuban baseball is about at the same difficulty level as AA. Tons of guys dominate AA and don’t even sniff the majors.

There’s no guarantee he’ll pan out. None whatsoever.

And, the highest first round draft bonus of 2008 was a tad over 6MM.

Though Im not so sure I like that contract too much, especially if he doesnt produce in the minors.

He's right.

And the fact that they got Che so cheaply (and for such good utility) meant the price was going up with the extra eyeballs on him. AND, as we know, the 3B FA market’s a little light (not in the loafers – don’t freak out, mjthor).

For some reason I feel like having a Cuban sandwich.

by Brush Back on Nov 20, 2008 5:48 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

We all agreed Che was cheap at $1.125M/year. If this is double+,

and they feel perhaps more confident in their assessment of him than they did with Che because of the positive words from 2 teammates, not just one, maybe they aren’t really paying up much.

I’d have a hard time believing he won’t make the team. We don’t have an All-Star in our future there.

by The Wizard on Nov 20, 2008 6:11 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

I have a hard time believing he will make the team

this year. Newly minted 20 y.o. players just don’t play MLB very often. The only position player to have sig. playing time as a 20 y.o. last year was Justin Upton (who turned 21 in August as opposed to Viciedo who won’t turn 21 until March of 2010), and I don’t think anybody is comparing this guy to Justin Upton. Viciedo has the added disadvantage of proving that he can play adequate 3B defense in addition to surviving with the bat. I would say the odds of Viciedo being given the starting 3B job out of ST at <10%. And since there is no room at 1B, DH or corner OF, I would put the chances of him making the team only slightly better than that.

I think we ought to call Thome and Konerko the "Cholesterol Brothers" because of the way they clog the bases.

by bhoov on Nov 20, 2008 6:18 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

No doubt.

If this signing is true, Viciedo looks to be part of the 2010 picture more than the 2009 picture. He immediately becomes one of the top-three prospects in the Sox system, but no more than that right now.

So we just attained the 3rd best prospect we have and he is under control for 4-5 years for 11 million…..

He got more money since it was open bidding… If he went into the draft he obviously would have had to sign for less.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

of course he doesn't sweat much

He is darker skinned. As Dusty Baker told us, he is better suited to play in warm weather.

His stats are as good as Fields -- that's the sad thing

by Jbasic89 on Nov 20, 2008 7:10 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs

5 years = 3 service + 2 arb

min sal for first three ~ 500k—>1.5 mill, leaves 10 mill over 2 arb years.

so yeah, he got like top 5 money?

in any case, 11 is about 4 WARP, which means for this to not work out, he won’t be a major league caliber player.

we're always the mystery team....

8:35pm: According to Jeff Passan, Furcal has been offered many three-year deals, but he wants a four-year contract. Furcal’s agent, Paul Kinzer confirmed that the Orioles, Braves, Giants, Cubs, Dodgers and A’s are interested, along with one unnamed “mystery” team.

by Jbasic89 on Nov 20, 2008 9:02 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

Furcal

4 year contract…. he just turned 31….

Career
Ba average .286
OBP .352

last year was the first year since 2001 that he didn’t have 560 plate appearances… so he’s been pretty durable (besides last year) he has a rifle in the field…. and can steal a base….

All that being said… i would say there is a 2% chance that we sign him…. we won’t put up higher money on a 3 year deal….. and i can’t see us offering a 4 year deal…
But i think he would fit this team perfectly….

so i'm watchin the wire

and they happen to be at camden yards and who are they playing? our white sox. since bunk mentions “ozzie being quick to yank a pitcher” and carlos lee being shown to pop up and damaso marte being mentioned over the pa as being the relief pitcher, i figured it out to be this game that our pale hose cameoed in the first episode of season three.
