The problem is if you remember the Arod negotiations, he had the Rangers negotiating against themselves, and wasn't telling them what other teams offered on purpose to keep the Rangers bidding higher. I agree it sounds nothing like Boars.

Seriously, quit threatening people. You posted something in a public forum, you can't get hurt feelings when someone doesn't agree with it.

If it gets him to sign...

I am guessing they are chasing both, hoping to land one until they get shutdown by one or both.

I can't see the White Sox tying up something like 30 to 50% of future payroll on two players for the next 8-12 years.

No.

Look at you screenshotting your phone like a pro.

This is exactly what I have spent all winter saying. Shoot for a whale, if that doesn't happen, don't waste your time on players who won't be on the next playoff team.

Trading Abreu would mean 1 thing. The White Sox know they aren't Ahab, and they are moving on. It could also be pointed out that even if a deal happens, we can resign Jose in 11 months, just like we could if we traded him.

If my back of the envelope math is correct the dollar figures are no where near close enough to work. We are talking about a 25% tariff on 250b worth of goods. That is $62.5b if it were to ever happen.

I have zero expectation that this man could figure out a two step plan, let alone something with the complexities of taxation and tariffs.

Updated for better accuracy.

Works for me.

Eovaldi has had two TJS. It means it is a lot more likely to happen again, and it will probably end his career.

You do realize that lying about this kind of stuff is a bannable offense?
