Either they realize Bryce is going to surely be far too expensive for them or their interest has been exaggerated just to use as a call back in the Lozano negotiation. Under.The.Radar Sox did the Bryce pitch right at the beginning...remember when we all thought he was our main target with no Manny news early on. Boras’ ship much tighter thus lips much tighter. Lozano is more of a histrionics showboat and thus planted leaks and fake news everywhere, which he somewhat successfully tried to stifle.

It's been the only move to improve them behind 2019, which is a sunk year anyway. My favorite move as well, but getting Homer Bailey off the books was a close second.

Plus, their on-field positions are more impactful to the series of moves that would be connected. Machado goes to the Phils, they’d have to trade Franco to the Padres before SD went to Moustakas, etc. Same with the moves the Sox would make after signing Machado...such as trading for Pederson, lower-tier starting pitcher, etc.

Machado=Beauty White Sox=Beast (due to an unmitigated disaster over the last six years, and their 40 years of signing only Fisk and Belle that were close to in their prime future HoF candidates) I guess I missed the memo where we had ANY relevant news to discuss...instead of raw conjecture, speculation and 100 multi-faceted theories about what was actually taking place behind the scenes.

Caulfield, I actually really like you as a poster, but I think this thread may have caused you to go insane.
January 30, 20197 yr Of course, perfectly natural transition to beauty and the beast analogies when there is a lack of rumors. Next we can take a shot at some haiku?

January 30, 20197 yr Alright peeps. I've been out since I got home from work. Besides the song from Beauty and the Beast, what have I missed?

January 30, 20197 yr Roses are red Violets are blue I want Manny Machado to sign with the White Sox And so do you
