Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that Yoenis Cespedes' contract with the Athletics does not include a no-trade clause.
In other words, if he becomes a big star and the A's don't think they can afford to keep him for the long-term, they have the freedom to trade him to any team. Cespedes' new four-year, $36 million deal with Oakland will allow him to test the free agent market after the 2015 season.
