Oh hell yeah, Tom Brady avi people are the best, definitely not horrible people on twitter

It’s not quite as straight up as Dave implies, because you pay taxes where the games take place. So your paying ~100 games worth of taxes in CA

I was talking about the board

Apparently not everyone

lmao

Deadlines are just throwing away any leverage you might have. What is he going to do, not play when all the teams don't care that he set a deadline?

JD Martinez literally just did this the Boston Red Sox. Yu Darvish did it with the Cubs. Nothing quite as undesirable as those two teams, right? This is all sky is falling Chicken Little stuff. Let it play out and try not to project your own fears onto a multi-hundred million dollar negotiation.

He takes the most money when he has run out the clock. It's really not that difficult.

It's really not hard to argue. Like at all. It doesn't matter who has the most money when they're all 100 million short of expectations. Do we all forget that this situation happened exactly a year ago?

It's because they suck and have sucked for 10 years. Also, who cares what is going on in a dying industry anyway.

I’m sorry but on no planet do the white Sox provide less exposure than the Padres

Having the best offer doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to come here when it’s 100 million less than he was hoping for. We had this with JD Martinez literally 12 months ago.

Jerry’s problem has never been on spending on the team. It’s been on spending money on a particular guy and cutting corners on development.

Either way I will be forgetting this whole thing over a few several beverages opening day. I just hope they're happy beverages and not angry beverages

Let's not act like that is particularly unlikely with this team

I doubt he's going to take 2 weeks of weather into account. And the 1 year deal wasn't happening last week and it's still not going to happen.

Konerko gets a mil next year as well I believe

They better hope they have answers everywhere else in house

The fear being the Phil's sign Harper first for significantly less then expected and then throwing their weight at Machado again. Or Vice Versa

How the hell did we get back to We Are Landing Bothland? Folks, it ain't happening.

Why on Earth would a Bryce Harper deal prevent them from announcing a Machado deal, regardless of how insane it is to think they'd be able to keep it quiet for an extended period.

Oh hell yeah

Didn't he get extended too?

40% is probably 39% too high
