  1. No but that could be the lefty outfielder the Marlins were seeking and makes Joc more likely to the Sox
  2. That 8 million they will save getting KCP will be a nice signing bonus for Manny
  3. Why is this in the Manny thread? Didn’t know it was a catch-all for “hot takes”.
  4. They would be sending bad money like Cueto or Samardzija, along with Melancon.
  5. Giants are totally going to end up helping the Yankees or Cubs get Bryce if they're really looking at stuff like this:
  6. You mean the one about Harper meeting with the Cubs? I would say Charles the Cat and Evan Altman are far less random than some of the things people have shared on here. Again, have you actually read what the soxordie account has posted? I would say our good friend J. Michael Robertson has a better chance of being accurate.
  7. Or if you know, the person had gotten something right so far and wasn’t posting nonsense like the Sox are trying to sign Joc to an extension. The cat at least got something right in the past. This other account has been wrong on every prediction it has made so far.
  8. From what I witnessed watching his games last year, he strikes out looking on more pitches right down the plate than Yoan does. For Collins, it’s less about being able to protect on borderline pitches and more about just swinging the bat and not looking to walk every appearance.
  9. Quite frankly, the drafting has been atrocious. With the likely graduations this year, they really need to see growth this year from those that struggled in 2018.
  10. That account has been inaccurate on a lot of stuff since it started.
  11. Seems like a nice plant by Boras-Heyman to get Phillies to up their offer
  12. Not a big fan of his shot, but I think just seeing him on every game just make good ACC players look like high school-level athletes has changed my mind.
  13. I still dislike Barrett’s game, but I’m sold on Zion now. Just a total freak of an athlete.
  14. Yep would love nothing more than the Cubs getting better while the Sox chances to miss on Manny increase. If they are meeting with him this late in the process, they clearly have some interest in him.
  15. Also there was a report that Harper met with other teams recently for a 2nd or 3rd time and the media didn’t report on those.
  16. FWIW, and it’s very little, but Jed Hoyer was out west yesterday. Said he just got to Arizona around 5pm cst when he called in to do his super bowl pick with Mac and Parkins.
  17. Well it ends up it was about the Cubs meeting with Harper yesterday https://www.cubsinsider.com/2019/02/02/source-cubs-met-with-bryce-harper-friday-deal-not-believed-imminent/
  18. To me, it’s more of the threat of the Phillies if Harper goes somewhere else.
  19. Just to make myself and some others nervous, but here's something that a pretty well-respected cubs insider posted tonight. No idea what it's about.
  20. Is it just possible they don't make as many White Sox ones as they do Red Sox/Yankees? Legit question, not a rhetorical question.
