I'm just not buying they cant afford Machado They can obviously afford him, it's just the issue if they actually want him. Not saying yay or nay on that as I have no idea and I'm certainly not counting anyone out until he signs somewhere but there's rumors that they've been split on him the whole time. Once again, no idea if that's true or not but that'd be the reason they're eliminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they get one fine, but if zero, they wasted too much of my time. Agreed. It’ll be like winning the blackout game to get swept in the first round. Two months of anticipation, creating with a ton of excitement at the one yard line, only to result in crushing, anti-climactic disappointment.

I'm just not buying they cant afford Machado I don't know if it's can't afford it. I think it's not wanting to have $55 million tied up in two players when you really only have a short term crunch in the position. Had they not acquired stanton I don't think it's a question they get one of em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They come out of the blue and then BAM fire baby. I have no idea what to expect here, but I've started daydreaming about Manny being in the middle of our lineup the next 5+ years and I'm excited. The out of the blue fire is boom we get both!!! Go Crazy!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth05 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 They should legit not even hold a conference call lol must be annoying for Jay to have a conference call to exclusively talk about Machado, even if they are close friends.
