February 15, 20197 yr Just now, Lillian said: Is that too front loaded? What would be permitted? Yeah, the contract has to stay within a percentage of the AAV. I don't remember the exact percentage but it's pretty small.

February 15, 20197 yr I would imagine ultimately these contracts will have some big deferrals to make them look a bit larger than "current day value".

I want what he says to be true, so I am willing to abandon all reason and thought. We're getting both!!!!!! Probably!!!!!! Maybe!!!!!! Cmon...

February 15, 20197 yr There’s really no reason at all to get excited about any “done deal” tweet that isn’t Rosenthal, Morosi, or Heyman at this point. It’s possible that some random will break it a day early, but there are so many random weirdos trying to guess correctly to earn their 15 minutes of fame, that every tweet you see must be treated as 100% meaningless. We won’t know who had it right until it’s already done, so there’s nothing to gain from speculating on these guys.

If something does finally happen then its over with. Win win...
February 15, 20197 yr I find it at least believable that the Machado deal could end up being around 8/240. I don't find it believable that Harper's deal could be that.

Judging by this offseason, we'll get a "machado and white sox nearing a new deal" an then 4 months pass

February 15, 20197 yr The only reason I'm even giving this tweet the time of day is because of the guy's track record of breaking stuff and the report that Harper has decided on a team (which seemed like it wasn't the Phillies given their press conference today). I don't think he's right, as if it were "done" like he insists, it would likely have been announced by now. It's just interesting to me is all.

I must have missed it, but who reported Harper has decided on a team?
February 15, 20197 yr Where is it coming from Harper has decided on a team? Was it a tweet or something?
