The Marlins are discussing a record-breaking $300 million deal with outfielder Giancarlo Stanton, according to FoxSports.com. CBSSports.com Baseball Insider Jon Heyman has confirmed the news, and adds that the contract could be for as many as 12 years.
The two sides are discussing $300 million deal that would keep Stanton in Miami from 10 to 12 years. Stanton's representatives have also discussed shorter deals with the franchise. General manager Dan Jennings said the two sides have had "continual dialogue," but added "I wouldn't say we're close to anything."
The 25-year-old Stanton is coming off an incredible season in which he hit .288/.395/.555, with 37 home runs, over 539 at-bats. If he doesn't agree to an extension, Stanton would become a free-agent in 2017.

For every Twitter rumor of Stanton's going to the Red Sox that rock and I provide to you today, do you agree to give your asshole a gentle fisting for each? |

This purported Stanton contract is ridiculous and rumors probably spread by his agent. Don't think Stanton is worth 80 mill more than Cano.

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman was told by a source that extension talks between the Marlins and Giancarlo Stanton are at the "10-yard line."
Heyman says the two sides "are said to be in basic agreement on the financial terms," but "there were still said to be one or two significant non-monetary hurdles to overcome." Those two hurdles are thought to be either an opt-out or no-trade clause or possibly both. Heyman concurs with FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal's report that the contract would be in the range of 12 years and $320 million, but he says it's possible the deal could be stretched to 13 years. The Marlins have been reluctant to give no-trade clauses in the past, but it's possible they could make an exception for Stanto

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Marlins are "discouraged" about their chances of signing Jose Fernandez to a long-term extension.
It's not clear what kind of proposals have been exchanged so far, but it doesn't appear an extension will get done anytime soon. There's no rush, of course, as Fernandez isn't even arbitration-eligible until after next season. The young right-hander isn't expected to rejoin the Marlins' rotation until June or July as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery.

Maybe Stanton could leave $50 mill on the table so he "only" gets $270 mill and the Marlins put that $50 mill towards Fernandez.
"I only wanna sign if the Marlins are committed to producing a winning product. Now give me every single penny in the vault."

It's an understatement to say the Marlins want the world to know they're trying to lock up Stanton long term. President of baseball operations Michael Hill and general manager Dan Jennings both broadcast the team's intentions in interviews last week, and a few respondents think the Fish will seal the deal. "I'm saying he signs for eight years and $200 million by spring training," an NL special assistant said.
Most of the baseball world is dubious. Stanton will be 27 years old when he hits the free-agent market in November 2016, and given the deals that Albert Pujols, Miguel Cabrera and Joey Votto commanded in recent years, $200 million might be the starting point for serious bids. The Marlins ranked 27th in attendance in their third year in Marlins Park, and South Florida fans are sufficiently jaded about Jeffrey Loria's ownership to expect that he'll sign Stanton through 2024 or whatever it will take.
"There's no chance he signs a long-term deal with the Marlins," an AL scout said. "He'll be wearing an L.A., New York or Boston uniform at some point -- probably before July 31. This stuff about signing him is all eyewash. No team ever tells people what it's going to do unless it's covering its [butt]. When deals like this get done, you don't hear anything about it until they're done."

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Marlins are "closing in" on a 13-year, $325 million contract extension with Giancarlo Stanton.
Heyman says the contract will contain both an opt-out and a no-trade clause. Most scoffed when president of baseball operations Michael Hill said earlier this month that he hoped to ink Stanton to a long-term extension before the Winter Meetings, but owner Jeffrey Loria has opened up the pocketbook to make it happen. Stanton surely would prefer to be on a team with more stability, but he's protected himself with an opt-out clause and got a record deal in the process. The contract buys out his final two years of arbitration and first 11 years of free agency.
