The Yankees could have had Cano for 8 years and $200 million is my guess. Certainly Cano wasn't expecting them to match the Mariners' offer of $240 million. Guaranteeing $45 million more over 7-8 years for a possible HOF player seems pretty reasonable considering the other guy has never thrown a pitch in the major leagues.
