Where did they give him a deadline at? There is no way the Sox pull out, RH has even said they have the time.

Could it be because they already played their hand with Alonso and Jay?

Kinda what I was trying to get at

This and to be honest I forgot about the Lofton signing as well and in my opinion wasn’t anything special to begin with

Doubt it gets announced at SoxFest but it would be a huge splash/surprise if they did, as far as ticket sales that is going to happen no matter what if they sign him.

I don’t think there is an amount at this point that people will decide is acceptable to pass up on him and not riot, pitch forks be damned if the Whitesox do not land him. Fans don’t care it’s not their money and want the Sox to land a star for once

To be fair we thought this last week as well

On average what is the guess here on how often the “mystery” team lands a big named free agent like these two though

Didn’t you say you have a source, what’s your insider telling you about the mystery team

I hope to god you are right, worse case scenario for me is the mystery team, if true, which I highly doubt it is comes in from left field and swoops him up while JR and RH are playing f*** f*** games with them.

The only way I see them losing Machado is by doing exactly this.....

I think it’s an obvious plant because why would he say the mystery team isn’t his preferred destination but then basically say but money talks like it’s telling the Sox to pony up some more $$

Damn mystery team and your high bid......?

https://mobile.twitter.com/hgomez27/status/1086264859166212096 there is this as well stating that manny is quietly waiting for the signing to occur.....so is it a done deal, just waiting for announcement or what?

Next ride on the roller coaster begins now!! Hop on boys!

Yes, if he isn’t signed by then I think it would be in everyone’s best interest to keep him away from the pitch forks.....poor guy, terrible first impression of our fans/media if it goes down like I think it would

Why not? Alonso is doing it in that exact video

Because of the hats?

Red Shirt.....Black hat.....Bulls colors....cased closed he’s a Whitesox

Glad to see regardless if that hat is a Sox hat or not that Yonder is onboard 100 percent wearing Sox gear, manny can’t avoid it.

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.
