Baron Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 The problem with the whole Harper thing is it's probably going to be February. That's going to be a nasty wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to be a nasty wait. Outside of making trades, there's not really any moves the Sox can make to be good for next year. With or without Harper, we're still likely looking at a bad year. The Sox can afford to wait (though, I'm not sure many of the fans can lol). Edited December 28, 2018 by soxfan2014 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to be a nasty wait. That is going to be nasty but if one team can wait it out it’s the White Sox, they don’t have to rush this, no reason to do so because if he doesn’t sign with the Sox we just stay the course we have been on. I don’t feel like Hahn has to have a deadline for Harper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to be a long January though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting Harper (or Machado for that matter) isn't about winning next year. It's about the long-term outlook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see this. I've always thought he'd be a perfect addition for the Cubs, a team with the one WS but needing a jolt so to speak to complete the deal one or two more times. I want Harper on the South side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I’d rather have a position player than a future DH/1B but him going to the cubs will suck. He’s an upgrade from Schwarber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Makes sense. Bryce wants an upgrade in franchise, not downgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
