Realizing I never got an email back for the fast pitch thing, oh well.

Crapping all over the cubs Sinclair announcement with machado would really be *chefs kiss* to rub in the crappy offseason for the cubs as they cry poor.

Remember when an image of a Harper bat with Phillies logos leaked and people freaked out? A few hours later the company clarified they just prepared several bats to be ready wherever he signed? That didn’t happen here, no knockdown at all so that feels pretty good.

That’s just the Andy Martino tweets being rehashed

Who was the poster that would only post “don’t stop git it git it”

Lol

The police rumors are the gifts that keep on giving.

BOO THIS MAN

Couldn’t the extra security be for the fast pitch thing?

This is a great idea.

But where will he get the money to buy multiple gloves?

Guys I already told you you didn't need to search because I already figured it out.

check the other thread that has spring training tweets.

I mean it doesn't mean he's signing, but thankfully it also doesn't mean he isn't signing.

Not according to the definitive google image search for "manny machado images"

Oh, gotcha. I don't know, they didn't have to add a secondary color. If it was all black I wouldn't bat an eye, but black and white after his balt gloves being black and orange?

I feel like I'm dumb, but are you saying the red could mean phillies?

Here is an important opinion based on a quick image search (no other research necessary everyone) While in baltimore he wore a black and orange glove. When he went to the dodgers, he didn't keep black and orange, he had a classic leather glove. So he clearly wants to either wear the team colors or no colors and you can't convince me otherwise thanks bye.

All I know is if Rawlings posted a picture and the gloves were phillies red I'd be losing my mind,

In like ten seconds well see a tweet that the phillies are changing their colors to black and red.

brilliant, possibly cruel (to me)

I found it interesting that jerry crasnick, former national sportswriter, retweeted Tony Clark's statement. Crasnick now works with the MLBPA, but am surprised he joined taking a shot at a former writer.

Just something to keep in mind about universities: it had a massive influx of students from 00-14, around the same time starting in 2000 state funding toward universities started to decline for many state institutions. In addition, school selection doesn't behave as a true market. Many schools found that increasing tuition gave the appearance of selectivity, making it seem like a better school, and saw increase in applications. Much like healthcare, it seems people have a difficult time choosing a cheaper option that has the appearance of lower quality when making a decision they feel will affect the future quality of their life substantially. Pairing that with increasing pool of students made it easy to raise tuition. Moving forward there is going to continue to be a declining student base from its peak with millenials, the 2008 crisis plunged child birth rates and that group turns 18 in 2026. Peak enrollment is already behind us. It's possible the college debt crisis may be isolated to the millennial generation, and some relief would not be as burdensome and expensive going forward. And it may also be necessary to make college even more attractive in the future to increase participation in future generations.

CPS has many of the best schools of the state. It's a massive school system with varying quality.

I hope burger kills it this year. Regardless of position, would be nice to have a big bat in system past eloy.
