I have endlessly searched “Manny Machado” and “Bryce Harper” on Twitter. You rarely see people “breaking” signings for any other team. All these fake insiders (hopefully some are real) all “break” Manny to Chicago or both to Chicago. It’s so odd. 

1 of a bunch of examples.

If you are trying to gain fame and notereity as an insider, then why choose the least likely scenario or all? The White Sox signing both? Just seems stupid.

Picking the Padres or White Sox gets a lot more raised eyebrows than any of the more commonly-expected large market clubs.

For all we know, Gomez is only out there with his Sox cheerleading to scare the Phillies into bidding against themselves.

What we he really lose if Machado signs elsewhere?

Hector has gained a lot of attention from major US publications for his reports. He has had many opportunities to abandon his first report. He has even had American journalists and reporters dispute him yet he has maintained his stance. If he’s wrong it can really hurt his credibility in the US in my opinion.

Part of his credibility, since he is a legitimate sports journalist?

People say this but in the Harper thread we have people standing up for Jim Bowden despite him trying to imply he had confirmed a trade completion that he saw on Twitter from ken rosenthal that turned out to be a fake account, and then tried to hide it by changing his twitter name to Ralph and deleting his old tweets.

Yeah I remember this. Bowden definitely can be lazy but not sure he could continue to be 100% retarded after that mistake and keep his job.
