lmao dumpster fire

Cordell has had 6 AB according to mlb.com Are people really excited for him? We don't have anybody better? He isn't even a moderately high-ranked prospect of ours from the looks of things

this is the first i've ever heard anything close to this.

Abreu and Palka are not major leaguers right now, holy SHIT lol

Not quitting being a fan, but shut the fuck up. Seriously, your post made me throw up in my mouth.

Definite pathology that seems to affect 100% of Soxtalk users in game threads.

"As of now, the Padres fictional offer seems to be in the lead for Machado."

Let's say the Sox had Machado wrapped up back when #hatgate was going on, and wanted to announced it at Soxfest how hard would it be to keep that information locked down until tomorrow, i find it really hard to believe that they've had him signed and would just keep it a secret my guess, nothing cool happens tomorrow

white flag

I would hate to be in Hahn's position wrt a mystery team. I mean, if you're dead serious about winning the bidding war for Machado, having the "there's no mystery team" gamble backfiring on you would be devastating So how do you keep from bidding against yourself, and at the same time not allow a real mystery team to swoop in?

if there is a mystery team, as that guy on twitter basically said does lozano tell the sox if they beat their offer? and if he does tell the sox that, do the sox bite or stand their ground? i understand that an agent can do whatever the fuck he wants including flat out lying about fake offers but if he has a legitimate offer from a team that doesn't want it's name disclosed, it would really suck to see the sox lose out in that fashion

If I'm Colorado I laugh at that offer

discounting the cubs/dodgers, who are the teams supposedly "in" on Harper? Sox, Phillies, who else? SD?

this sucks.

He never had a blue check, it was the guy who he was talking to within that post thread.
