I like the way you think though about the Rockies, as it could allow them to trade Arenado for catching and prospects (ie: Contreras +) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote4Pedro Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 (edited) Morosi was just on fox sports radio talking Harper and Machado and mentioned there are not many Machado suitors but did link us to him numerous times in his update in regards to him. Didn’t mention anything in regards to the Sox on Harper though. Thinks Phillies land Harper and hinted at the white Sox landing Machado Edited December 9, 2018 by beckham15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saufley Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I'll take Machado. Just a feeling like Harper won't sign here. Just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisox05 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Machado really is more of a need then Harper. Ton of outfield depth and guys to sign for fillers now but no true third baseman going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Isn’t his preference to play SS? Feel like asking him to come to the White Sox to play 3B is a lot to ask for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not fond of his attitude, but agreed, not quite a super team but an immediate winner/enjoyable team, super tea down the road Robert, Moncada, Machado, Harper, Eloy, Abreu, Collins, Palka, Anderson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he played SS this year and liked it he will make the decision before he signs. If he has changed and will play either, then the team can decide. I don't think any team is going to blow him away w money vs the competition so he will probably choose a team based on his desire. There is no way any team will pay that money only to find out he becomes a disruption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish more people would put to the side their personal feelings on the FO, Harper, and Machado, and see how huge getting the both of them would be. Instant foundation. Paying $65-$70 mil annually for 2 players will not financially hurt us with the cost control options we’ll have at other positions. If needed, I’m sure a few of these options will be traded for upgrades to fill roster spots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panerista Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I'm surprised the Cubs haven't expressed interest. Then again, their need to support Addison Russell is crazy town so maybe the screws are coming loose on the north side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
