I think that it's clear their finances cannot support Machado with Myers and Hosmer on the books and am not worried. The two guys I recognized who follow him are....drumroll.... Incrarcerated Bob and Dan Clark. I think we're good carrying on and not paying attention to this guy lol

While it may not be true, it would imply they sat on their hands all winter and didn't up the offer enough allowing SD to come out of nowhere. The Yankees would suck, but like, that's life. I would be infuriated if he goes to SD

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

February 13, 20197 yr We already know Yonder was trying to sell him on coming to the Sox, including the FaceTime at soxfest.

February 13, 20197 yr If sharing these annoy you I am sorry. I find them very humorous in a very dreadful offseason so far. Here is random guy number 2 today lol

February 13, 20197 yr I also don't buy for one second that Manny doesn't talk to his brother in law and best friend about where he is signing. Edited February 13, 20197 yr by Orlando
February 13, 20197 yr I gotta do homework but I keep checking my phone every 2 seconds to see if anything happened. I'm obsessed.

February 13, 20197 yr I just don't understand what the Sox and Manny would be waiting for to announce if he's actually agreed to anything. There is definitely a ton of smoke , but what is the benefit for anyone of not just getting on with it if there is actually an agreement.

There are just a lot of people seemingly speculating that MM and the Sox have agreed to terms and they're waiting for *something to announce. I just don't buy it. The black and silver gloves are very intriguing tho.

You don't agree to something and then hide it. They only possibility is they kept him going to a physical from the media, which is incredibly unlikely. When a deal is agreed to we will know almost immediately.
February 13, 20197 yr I am pro player, but I'm kind of annoyed at the comments about how manny and bryce should have jobs. Making that case for the 100 free agents as a whole? Fair. The pretty decent list of good mlb players signing minor league contracts? Totally fair. But it's not like Bryce and Manny haven't been offered jobs. While I don't think Bryce or Manny are losing any money by waiting and thus keep waiting, I think any player like Moustakas who thought they would have more leverage when machado signs was sorely mistaken. For the mid-level player, I'm not seeing it as clear at all that waiting has benefited them vs taking the first few offers.
February 13, 20197 yr I know someone asked this yesterday in a thread but I don't remember seeing an answer. Is there going to be another camp for the unsigned MLB free agents like last year?
