Watching the end of Gravity. As Sandra Bullock just said "either going to survive in one piece with a great story or burn up, either way it's been one helluva ride."

But its collusion if he states it directly, no?

I think that's been pretty obvious from the beginning.

Enjoy the ride. I think its immensely entertaining.

I think it's more due to the uniqueness of these players, not general FA. Two players expecting record breaking contracts due to the quality and age is a pretty rare event.

Don't remember but with Jay's ties to Manny, you know the reporters would be after Hahn for a comment. Not sure that's true for McCann.

True but its protocol to have at least a conference call with signings so the press can ask their questions and get a reaction from the GM. If not, you know all the reporters would be calling and would comment on his lack of access. Better to just give the company line and they will leave it alone.

I think he does need to say it. He can't be quiet about it, fans want transparency and he can't tell the truth. It's better just to say the company line, even if no one believes it.

Counter punch by Machado's agent.

That's the modern social media.

absolutely.

Getting old is not for the timid.

You just refuse to e joy any part of this, don't you?

Ok. Not much of a "the journey is the destination" type of guy are you.

Of course they can afford him. But the question is, would he be the best use of those resources?

Did they waste your time or did you waste your time on them?

I will be at a birthday party on Saturday (we aren't related are we) with all my Cubs fan relatives. This would make it more enjoyable. I'm sure I'll get, we aren't bad enough to need him though.

Not me. i already set up the payment plan.

Yep. Talked to Rick Hahn on a conference call last year. ?

No doubt. You dont have to work on playbooks, endless film sessions, extra time with receivers or get hit though.

It's really not bad, if you have the money to afford a decent place to stay and food which he would. It's the minimum bonus guys that have the issues.

Looks like the rumor of harper to the Phillies put a crack in the dam.

Whenever anyone plays at the G spot they swing for those fences and the average goes down. I'll take the increased power and RBI compared to the other stadia.
