Does Alex Call being out of the picture change anyone's outfield predictions? I guess he could've started in Charlotte either way

They have also posted Harper in a Phillies jersey, if that makes a difference

I haven't seen a single person guarantee a Machado signing

This puts us in a position of power, especially because our meeting with Machado is on Monday. Harper and Boras have just been sitting on our offer but now the pressure is on them and not us. If they want to risk losing their best (monetary) offer, so be it.

Reinsdorf owns the company I believe

I know it's Nightengale, but nobody comments on the idea that we want to pull a Phillies and sign both of the whales? Given that he's usually a FO mouthpiece, I haven't been able to figure out why they wanted him to tweet that.

Wow. The disrespect for the original "Harper banner spotted at United Center" days is just unbelievable.

Part 3? More like part 5

I'll drop it since I appear to be outnumbered, but this is textbook confirmation bias to me. The Dodgers could very well sign Bryce Harper- in fact, I'm more afraid of them doing so than I am the Phillies/Yankees- but this tweet is most likely nothing. Guys are right on something (such as Bour) all the time on Twitter by just tweeting a bunch of random rumors and then deleting the ones that end up being wrong. Same thing can happen on Reddit. Until someone legit, such as Rosenthal/Heyman/Morosi says something about this, it's just as meaningless as the tweets from similar accounts saying that Harper is leaning towards signing with us.

Maybe the peavy44 stuff, but the Tyler Hunt tweets and the one from the guy with 150k followers (forgot his name) were largely ignored compared to this one

I wouldn’t. It’s crazy that you guys are all buying some nobody on this because he was right about Justin Bour, yet when similar accounts with similar track records (i.e. being right about one thing one time) say that Harper is signing with the White Sox, they don’t even generate discussion.

It’s far more likely that he tweets this stuff daily and then deletes the ones that aren’t true

Yeah, that’s the ONLY reason.

This is shocking. It’s almost like you haven’t already spammed the board with this opinion 46 times

fake

Who?

No. /thread

A lot of outrage over someone who's gonna play 20 games over 2-3 months and then be DFA'd for Seby

It was always 5

He's trolling us, but I'm surprised the White Sox are letting him.

If they were this deep, I feel like there would have been more leaks by now.

This, plus Heyman predicting the Sox signing Harper, haven't been talked about much but are actually pretty noteworthy.

This is what I was referring to
