Quick Hit: Pablo Sandoval May Be Headed To New York

According to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe the San Francisco Giant's third baseman Pablo Sandoval is headed to free agency for the first time in his career and may be on the way out of San Francisco. Cafardo speculates that Sandoval, easily the best third baseman in a weak market at the hot corner, could fetch as much as a five year deal worth $100 million. Cafardo speculates that if the Panda gets a contract that lucrative that only three or four teams would be involved, the New York Yankees, the Boston Red Sox, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Miami Marlins.

Here's the quote:

Nonetheless, most major league executives we’ve talked to believe Sandoval will wind up with a five-year deal worth about $100 million. That could be with the Red Sox, Yankees, or Dodgers.
