Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes has agreed to a four-year, $36M deal with the Athletics.
The Marlins also bid $36M for Cespedes. But their offer was over six years, not four, one source familiar with the Cespedes negotiations told ESPN.com's Jayson Stark. The Marlins weren't interested in a deal shorter than six years, an executive who spoke with the team told ESPN.com.
Cespedes can sign Monday after receiving his unblocking license from the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control, his agent, Adam Katz, told ESPN.com's Stark.
