We have to be getting close. Don't we?

Have to agree. I don't see where it hurts the long term plan.

I am also losing my patience with this!

Good! I hope he signs. Then we can get on with the Machado situation.

Let's ask him. Nice going, Chili!

If we do sign Manny, I hope it is early in the week rather than later. All we can do is hope. Come on Rick. Pay up!!

Just messing with you. Appreciate anything newsworthy. Thanks.

So, you're saying he's signing this week, huh?

A little late to the party!

Did he have any credibility before today? If so, maybe not anymore.

Does for me.

Well, sadly, we can now concentrate 100% on Machado! SIGN HIM!!

Now if we can just confirm this.

Does not caring anymore count?

Yea, the Ellsbury of several years ago maybe, but not the player they have now.

I keep reading that the Nats are upping their offer for Harper. As mentioned on the board earlier this is really getting confusing. Like chess I guess.

Are we still "in" on Harper? If not, that should be some extra cash that could be spent in other areas of need.

Frustrating, to say the least.

Exactly!

With the Manny front quiet it sure would be nice to see the SP or bullpen positions strengthened.

I'd agree with that statement.

As a fan, I am too! I would have no problem with giving our best offer and if not accepted then we move on to the next plan.

The Sox need to step up and get it done. Don't need to lose Machado over trying to outsmart the other teams.

Maybe he's in California and it's only 6:00PM.

Where's Chili?
