Am I the only one who thinks tying up ~75 million a year to two guys isn't the best idea? I think it would cause our hands to be tied in filling out the rest of the roster and might backfire. If it were to happen I'd be thrilled and wouldn't complain, just a little hesitant

Uh oh jealousy from Peavy!

*If* we had the choice between Harper and machado, who do we choose or do we go both?

I'll take you for it, that's pretty awesome

Is this legit or are you kidding?

A fellow white sox Redditor! Guys...[John] doesn't know shit

Adam LaRoche Jeff Samardzija Todd Frazier Alex Avila Toby Hall

That's not quite true, they would lose a potential bidder. They could be there just to get the Phillies/yankees to bid more

I think he might've been assuming that yonder was there because he was taking questions from Chicago media, but everyone on here said it was by phone

Not sure they would go through all of this trouble if they weren't prepared to offer a substantial amount of money

I really don't think it matters, Machado grew up in America and speaks fluent English anyway

Honestly, how good of an asset can renteria be

Didn't look like he knew who renteria was

Bruce is such a grinder I love it

This is exactly what would've happened haha

Poor guy probably thinks that's all hes good for

Exactly..there have already been initial offers sent out, and even boras said that him and harper have moved onto the negotiation phase. Buster's info is just the white sox trying to negotiate through the media

Contract offers have absolutely been offered. We already have offers out to harper/machado, and I'm sure other teams do too

Wellington is a better all around catcher than narvaez, yonder is a replacement for Davidson and he's better, and there was no room for Alex call (plus he sucks). Yeah these were definitely influenced by machado..but I still think these moves make us better

He doesn't complain about playing DH and make a big fuss about it though. Hahn talked to him and basically said he's happy to play wherever the team wants him to

That's an incredible point. Represents a little bit of a selfish teammate. Hopefully he's just saying this because he's a free agent, but you never know. I do think it's a little off putting, but maybe it will change once he's actually on a team

But yes, we're meeting with him tomorrow. Not sure how much information is going to come from it though given his other meetings this week. However they've already offered a contract, and I bet they offer a pretty enticing one tomorrow.

I like your twitter avatar

Jon phrases it in a way that makes it seem like it's us vs the yankees. I'd think the Phillies have a better chance than us
