Nah there is a curve in there man.

Damn that does kinda look like an old school Sox hat....hard to tell tho

Has there ever been any signing that has taken place or announced at SoxFest?

No way it can be held under wraps for another week

Maybe RH and crew should follow their lead and not take questions at SoxFest, you know 1,000% of the questions will be about Harper/Machado. I would even consider canceling the Alonso visit if machadobisn’t in a whitesox uniform by then. Not fair to that dude.

No way they are going to back down from their reports now, maybe the beginning of next week they will not necessarily admit they were wrong but report a “new” offer of what Gomez is doubling down on.

Why do I think of this when I hear or see a tweet from Bruce Levine.....

I can only imagine how myself and I’m assuming most of the rest of this board would react if Machado/Harper sign first and the team isn’t the Chicago Whitesox.....talk about a shit storm.....

I wish I could feel this way, my brain has turned to mush thinking about what’s going on when it will be over etc. The 16 year old kid screams both is possible but the 31 year old adult says no chance it happens....so it depends on which one you ask.

Bruce only knows what people are feeding him, he is being used as puppet in this chase. I imagine today is going to be a pretty slow news day in regards to hearing anything on Machado after yesterday’s debacle.

Good luck with that! Unfortunately for me, as deployments have been some of the best days for me in the service, mine are all behind me now being a career recruiter.

Thanks for your support! It’s really an honor and privilege to get to do what I do.

I’m a Navy guy myself, so gotta say you might have chosen the wrong branch but all kidding aside I couldn’t agree with you more. The adventures the service takes you on are absolutely amazing. Still currently serving?

raBBit only said something along the lines of the Whitesox like to announce deals on Wednesday’s. I don’t ever recall ever seeing him say anything specific about today though.

Yes, I think this is exactly why Sox fans are hitting the panic button everyday with this 7/175 talk and it won’t look good for JR or any of the front office if a team now comes in and sweeps him out from under us. Pitch fork grabbers will be out and about regardless of the ending calling JR cheap etc. I get the Sox don’t want to bid against themselves but at the same time I’d be asking manny what is it going to take to get this over and sign him today, if they feel it’s reasonable just give him what he wants and be done with it.

So if this was a Sox leak to Nightengale and Levine and somehow after all this Manny still signs with us, you have to give the signing leak to one of those two whipping boys, correct?

So can anyone here make sense of what the hell just happened today? Are we in, are we out, do we shake it all about, I’m under mass confusion at the moment. It’s too damn weird

Wow, so glad I’ve only been able to pay attention to this thing for like a whole 10-15 minutes today. I don’t know what to honestly think anymore about all of this.....just wow

From the Quad Cities

Wow I leave for an hour and all hell breaks loose.....the Sox need to step up their game or Lozano and Manny May just say okay we are done....ugh

Next report Levine or Nightengale come up with is Machado currently being offered Jon Jay money.....this is more comical than anything

The real debate is whether the gift card expires in 7 years or 8.....#dealbreaker

Portillos gift card? Where do I sign?!

No chance unless they want to sit in the luxury tax forever

Do you really think the Yankees would have left the table if the offer was really 7/175 though?
