Jose Abreu

He probably could've been in AA last year. That's why he might be the kind of guy who barely stays in Charlotte just because he's so polished.

It’s 8/250, I believe Passan and Gomez as they aren’t the types to get used for leverage. What they report tends to be accurate. I find it funny that Bruce is saying it could be 7/175. That’s just so much worse to the point where you know he’s getting bad info.

But when a team does beat the national guys, it's the White Sox. That said, I don't think this is happening today

There we go. That's great news, and this is coming from someone who did not believe the earlier Nightengale report in the slightest

He sent out another tweet saying nothing is done

Didn't Buster literally laugh at our chances at landing a whale in December?

I just really like what I saw from him last year and I think he would be relatively cheap. His home run rate was microscopic. I much prefer him to Gio Gonzalez and that nasty walk rate. Pomeranz, I'm not as sure about since last season was so strange/bad, but I'd prefer him to Gonzalez for sure.

Wade Miley, Marwin Gonzalez

I'm conflicted on that. I would tend to agree but his implication, both in the article itself and in his accompanying tweet, that we would go more than 8 years also tells me that there still may be a decent amount of work left to do.

Just for old times' sake, let's always remember this gem from Bruce Levine.

This means a lot more to me than the Nightengale report. He seems to think we'd offer 10 years if necessary, too.

a.) people who want the White Sox to be better b.) people who want the future of the team to develop properly

Enjoy watching him in Philly then. Beggars can't be choosers

Exactly, it's all media. You can take exception to what he does on the field but it's well-documented that he's a good clubhouse guy

His past teammates have said things of that nature about him

I wouldn't put any stock in it. He makes these statements all the time and is almost always wrong.

So Bob is saying Harper will sign with Philadelphia and Machado will sign with us? That means Harper will sign with us and Machado will sign with Philadelphia.

Eloy/Jay/Granderson would be the 2019 OF with Machado/Anderson/Moncada/Abreu in the infield. Alonso at DH, I don't care what happens to Engel or Palka

I know he'll be 38 but he has been an above average hitter for the past 5 seasons. I actually wouldn't mind him on a cheap deal if we get Machado and need a competent right fielder

That's odd given that Herrera only follows 62 people, which even for an athlete is not much at all

I don't think it actually means anything but I just found it interesting that Phillies fans are thinking it's about us and that the guy has multiple pictures of himself with Machado.

Given the amount of pictures he has with Machado, it's possible that they're friends

Stuff like this from Phillies fans is what I am referring to

It's implying that Manny has made a decision and Phillies fans don't think he would've chosen them today given that their brass spent the day in a meeting with Harper
