GREEDY Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 These Manny buddy acquisitions would be diabolical if their purpose was to worry Boras that we might be closing in on Manny, to force Bryce to jump. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better yet, get Manny now and then go hard after Harper when Boras realizes the Sox are the only team seriously interested in him. 👍🏻 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thad Bosley Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I’m not that familiar with Jay. Is he at least decent defensively, if he’s to be a possibility in center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously tho -- I'm cool with it if it nets us the big dog... I hate the strategy of it tho.... you don't see a team like the Yankees pulling this to get Machado. This is clown-style strategy. This will be my last negative post here. Let's go GET MACHADO! The Yankees won 100 games last year and are his desired location, we have the most losses in the MLB over the last six years. Did you really think we could replicate their sales pitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be lying if I said there isn’t a part of me thinking this is a rash move by the Sox, they don’t feel like they are in the drivers seat so they are pulling out last ditch efforts to try and help. Or they think they don’t need to offer the top bid because they have his buddies. I don’t think that’s the case, but it also wouldn’t shock me. Your second point is my main worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W'Sox need to put on their big boy pants, offer him a respectable contract (and not pocket the surplus money from a team with such low player salaries) and they have him.

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I really think it's almost over and the end result will be good. This is the sort of move the Sox would make if they knew Machado would sign here if they did it. I'm feeling really confident right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, if the Sox made an formal offer, then the total dollars aren’t the issue. There could be other issues, but I doubt it’s money. The Sox suck right now and it would be nice if Machado could enjoy a bad year with some friends. I suspect that’s why they are doing this.
