Yoennis Cespedes Rumors

Now that Cespedes has officially been declared a free agent, some say the best free agent still available, it will be very interesting to see where he lands.  Unlike the Japanese players that come over, there will be no posting fee required for who ever wants to enter the bidding war for Cespedes.  Take away MVP caliber center fielders from the Red Sox, Jacoby Ellsbury, and Yankees, Curtis Granderson, and you would expect those two big market teams to play a roll in the bidding.  Word out there is that Cespedes & the Miami Marlins are scheduled to have a meeting within the next week.  If the Marlins could land him they would have a very solid lineup both defensively and offensively.  Another team I could see making a big push for Cespedes is going to be the Chicago Cubs.  The team is in need of another legit bat, and if he hype around Cespedes is real he just might be the one to answer the call for them.  Who do you guys think Cespedes will end up for the 2012 season?
