No. Remain calm that the front office will get several moves done in the next few weeks.

Said it once, I'll say it again. Every Tom, Dick and Harry with a twitter handle out there thinks he/she can be an "insider" by throwing out garbage and seeing what sticks. So much misinformation going on. Sox aren't letting the Padres outbid them for their guy, and if they do, shame on them.

Thread needs to get to 1000 pages in order for Machado to sign on the dotted line. No way the Sox allow the Padres to outbid them for Machado.

Rendon has been a really good player the last three seasons

The National Media guys have had virtually nothing to report on Machado/Harper, which is pretty telling. If anything were close to finalizing I'm sure we'd hear about it.

It's easier if we all assume this is easily going to drag well into March for the Machado/Harper saga to be over

This crap is going to drag out well into March I bet

Philly sucks, totally understand why players would not want to sign there

Where is this talk of Harper AND Machado coming from? Hahn already shot down the idea of signing both as being not realistic financially to have two massive contracts on the books.

I really hate how every Tom, Dick and Harry with a twitter account suddenly is an insider this offseason. People are just throwing BS at the wall and seeing what sticks. I do trust Hector Gomez though, as he has no reason to stick his neck out there with Machado to the Sox unless his source was credible.

Yankees I could understand if the money was close, but if the Padres signed Machado I don't think I would recover from that

We can only remain hopefully Machado to the Sox gets done. I'm not sure the fanbase can handle him signing anywhere else at this point.

Hector may very well be Sox fans favorite reporter if this deal comes together. He has continued to suggest Machado is going to the Sox.

Some form of a swellopt 8 year/250 deal should be very competitive to getting Machado signed if true

That would make for a hell of an offseason for Philly

I'm buckled up for this to drag out another month. Everyone should be prepared for that.

That's nothing crazy then I expect this crap to drag out another month

please share it

MLB 2019 INSIDER‏ @MLB2019INSIDER 17m17 minutes ago More My sources have been proven correct 99.9% of the time. I reported yesterday that the Phillies were turning to J.T. Realmuto after being informed they were out on Machado. The #Dodgers deal for Realmuto fell through on Monday, as I reported at the time. Nasty comments= BLOCKED. Take the above with a huge grain of salt, but it does fit the timeline.

Neither would I. Rutherford is still young and has upside still.

If you do not know the Sox have been all over Machado for the past year, can you even call yourself a Sox fan?

The Jordan tweet heavy implies something is going to happen today, which would be awesome. I refuse to get worked up anymore after such a roller coaster of an offseason. We are still likely weeks away from a resolution.

Hopefully Hector has been right about this all along. He's the only source reporting this really though.

Exactly this^ Announcing the signing of Machado would be met with joy. Another team announcing a deal with him would be a huge blow to the fanbase.

Remember early in the offseason how all of the mania was about Harper? Technically we are still in on Harper, but everything shifted to Machado mid December or so
