January 11, 20197 yr For the sake of my mental health this needs to end soon. This and other things has been stressing me out for days now.
January 11, 20197 yr I never buy player's uniforms/shirts (I have my name on here), but if we nab him I'm buying a Machado shirt.

He was one of, if not the, worst 3bs in baseball last year. 1 minute ago, Kiebs13 said: Robert & Dunning would be a HUGE overpay for a guy who most likely ends up at 1st.

January 11, 20197 yr I heard whenever Royce Clayton's name is mentioned on Soxtalk, Gage's penis gets smaller.

It'd be stupid. I would, however, do something like Abreu, Rutherford and Lambert for Andjuar and play him at 1B (and sign Manny). But I HIGHLY doubt the Yankees would do that.

Signing him would easily push them into the luxury tax, and leave them with zero flexibility moving forward. exactly, they'll be taxed on the front end and on their percentage of revenue sharing pool allotment.

But, I still think its possible. I read the other day they would be hit with a 50% tax, so a 35 million AAV contract turns into a $52.5 million cost.

January 11, 20197 yr Just now, shipps said: Wow, he is finally starting to backpeddle. This is a big day.
January 11, 20197 yr Just now, shipps said: lol well he about to donate that money also poor whitesox dave getting dm
January 11, 20197 yr 12 minutes ago, OmarComing25 said: What's a fair price then? I mentioned that I thought was fair - Abreu and a 2nd tier prospect. Andujar was not an elite prospect (50ish); he had a good year - kind of Palka with an extra 30 OBP points. He played his position poorly. The Sox would take the risk that he can never play 3B. If the Sox sign Machado, which one would think is no worse than 50/50 at this point, and if he stays at 3B, then it's moot. Edited January 11, 20197 yr by GreenSox
January 11, 20197 yr I was just about to say....he deactivated his account. Good lord I wish incarceratedbob would too.
January 11, 20197 yr Just now, Peacock Wrestler said: HOW WILL I GET MY BREAKING NEWS?!?!?! Just now, shipps said: He deactivated so he wouldn't get any crap for not paying the charity.
