Ross Gload Fan Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Do you think if he goes to NY and Philly, and one of them offers more, he will give us a chance to top it? I would think so but I don't know how these things go down. I suppose nobody really does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The agent works for Manny. But the agent negotiates the details of the contract. Even if the player wants to sign the first one, the agent needs to hear the other deals to get the best deal from the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomPickle Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) I understand that the likelihood of anything happening tonight basically zero, yet I cannot stop refreshing. Edited December 18, 2018 by TomPickle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) If there was no chance of Manny signing with them, I am sure the Yankees and Phillies would appreciate their meetings being cancelled and their time not wasted. I am sure the presentation was well done, and Manny is getting the royal treatment, and it is probably blowing him away. But, two other teams are going to do the same thing. One, he seemingly always wanted to play with. It doesn’t seem they want to go too long with him though. I still think showing him the money, and Alonso should win out. Besides, leaks about how this meeting is going or went, are BS. Do you think Hahn, and Renteria, and KW, and JR are live texting?

I agree I am just worried about the Yanks blowing him away with the allure of playing for the Yankees since he’s always wanted to do that more than anything the Phillies could offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrathofhahn Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Hopefully we play both these dudes off each other. Machado is the better player at the position of need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 FWIW, Kaplan said on Sportstalk Live tonight that he has heard from multiple people that if Machado and Harper don’t sign with the Sox, it won’t be because of a lack of money. He adamently said that they won’t be outbid. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
