spiderman Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 On 2/16/2019 at 3:35 PM, Dick Allen said: The White Sox won 62 games. They haven’t added a player who put up a 1.2 fWAR or higher last year. With or without Manny, they will most likely suck. But at least with him and Eloy, there actually may be a reason to watch after the first couple of weeks. This is where I am at. Unless the young talent takes a big step forward at the major league level, this team is likely to show improvement, but still be a below .500 team, perhaps well below.

GermanSoxFan Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) I mean it must be tough to be a baseball writer in 2019, but to do an agent's bidding is pretty sad. Edited February 18, 2019 by GermanSoxFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah most of these guys have really been left behind thanks to social media/Twitter. All they have is whatever the agent has for them. Bowden, Heyman, Nightengale, and Levine. They have had some of the worst tweets over the last few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfect Vision Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Heyman has called Philly the "favorite" for Harper no fewer than four times in the last 24 hours. Just speculation, but that seems like textbook leveraging of Philly to me if this info is coming from Boras. No idea if the Sox are still in it, but it really seems like Boras is trying to get someone else to win this thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Not sure what's going on, but it is interesting that Zobrist (who's been rumored as someone the Cubs could look to trade to free up money) is excused from the team right now due to personal reasons.

caulfield12 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 They're going to need to free up a LOT more than Zobrist's final year salary to contemplate a move for Harper...!!! And now a word from our sponsor, Cat Fancy (except for the 90% of America that now can't stand the Cubs or their fans) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCCWS Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 It was a year ago today that Boras client J D Martinez's agreement w Boston was announced. We will see if 2/19 has some significance w Boras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justinsettle Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Unfortunate about Machado- but here is the funny thing. Harper will likely get even more money and will soon sign the all time worst contract in history of baseball. I think 10/300 should have been the ceiling for him and that even an overpay with buyers remorse... but now it will be even worse. Some team is going to be stuck with a guy that can't field and is an above avg hitter getting paid the most in history of the game. Would you want Stanton, Fielder, Price, Pujols for what they are paying them? Maybe Cano, and I would say Arod probably lived up to contracts. Hopefully Sox are officially out on Harper that is a contract that is going to hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
