"Crazy? Don't mind if I do!"

Man I still don't have a good feeling about this. I'm trying to contain my excitement at the possibility of getting him so it doesn't hurt as bad if we don't but it's tough lol

Agreed. Also, does this count lunch and dinner meetings?

But is this "chilling" footage?

I'm going to predict by NYE for Machado.

I thought so too when I read his Tweet.

So what you're saying is is that Harper should also DH over half the time.

They could have, you know, changed their minds since that was originally reported.

What do people on here think an agent does? Based on everything I've read on here the past few weeks, the players might as well not even have one. It was especially funny when people were discrediting the value of Harper's agent, ya know, Scott Boras. There's a reason these guys get hired.

Yeah definitely possible.

He even included a period!

Hit him 9th and let him go catch everything.

Say what you will about his bat, but I really don't mind Engel's defense out in CF next year, whether he's between Eloy/Harper or the more likely Eloy/Palka, his glove is needed.

I can't wait for all this to be over with.

I would say the same about discussing a multi- hundred million dollar contract.

Hal also wanted to meet with him so he can get to know him in person and get to know his character. Steinbrenner on Machado comments and wanting to meet in person: https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/11/14/hal-steinbrenner-manny-machado-hustling-comments-troubling-yankees

Machado also needed to sell himself to the Yankees about his comments in the playoffs. People seem to be forgetting about that part.

Yeah I'm sure there have been for weeks to be honest.

I doubt they really talked contract details with the Sox either. I'm sure the offers will come this weekend/after Christmas and a decision by the end of next week.

Yeah I would be pretty fucking bummed.

That Steinbrenner funeral is today so that could also be why it was short.

Ramirez, Lindor, Senzel from 2B to 3B...damn.

The awkward moment when the Yankees aren't the last team to meet with Machado.

I feel like they don't have to sell on being a Yankee as opposed to a team like the White Sox has to. Having said that, I do think it was more due diligence on their part.

I can see him go to the A's to play 2B.
