January 8, 20197 yr I guess a Jay/Engel platoon could work: LF - Eloy CF - Engel/Jay RF - Palka Tilson is probably a goner if this happens.
January 8, 20197 yr Still just offer the most money. These type of moves probably don't move the needle much. Alonso one guaranteed year and I doubt Jay gets more than 2, probably 1.
January 8, 20197 yr He’s not married to Manny’s sister or cousin - so that means he isn’t worthy of our uniform.
January 8, 20197 yr 4 minutes ago, Tony said: Listen, at the end of the day we all know Machado completely alters the franchise for the next 6-7 seasons. If adding a few of his buddies for a year gets him here, you do it. If it doesn’t work, you look like clowns in 2019, but there is minimal long-term harm. Oh absolutely. It’s just a hilarious strategy, doesn’t mean I don’t like it.
January 8, 20197 yr If they don't get Machado, all these moves will look so foolish but at least they tried.

January 8, 20197 yr Just now, Heads22 said: Also, would Jon Jay rat out Manny for any misdeeds? He's probably being brought in to distract Alonso.

It’s pretty funny, but if you look at it from Manny’s perspective, if the offers aren’t nearly as high as you expected, you might as well try getting to play with two of your best friends out of the deal.
January 8, 20197 yr This guy fucking sucks. It was ridiculous when we went out and got Yonder to recruit Manny. That's some whack ass shit. Now it's just downright clown-style. Jon Jay SUCKS. Sure, if it gets us Manny than whatever. But if this, in any way, signals that we are out on Harper than fuck the Sox. Holy fucking christ does Jon Jay suck. 34 year old that batted 235 last year ew.

January 8, 20197 yr Poor Moustakas, desperately working on his tan and learning all the lines from Scarface.

Holy fucking christ does Jon Jay suck. 34 year old that batted 235 last year ew. How would that signal the end of Harper lol Jon Jay won't block Bryce fucking Harper (granted it's always been unlikely they would hand out 2 huge contracts). Edited January 8, 20197 yr by soxfan2014
January 8, 20197 yr Googling "manny machado friends" also brings up Matt Kemp Steve Pearce Jonathan Schoop Albert Almora Jr. In case anyone wondered where our next move might be.
January 8, 20197 yr We've added: Alex Colome, Kelvin Herrea, Jon Jay, Ivan Nova, James McCann, Yonder Alonso.... What an off season of shit so far. Couldn't get a more broken, average (or below) group.

January 8, 20197 yr Its just a coincidence the Sox like these guys. I mean so what Machado's random cousin was hired to be assistant gm. He was the best man for the job!

January 8, 20197 yr This would be our most interesting acquisition of the off-season, if we complete it. Fills an actual hole on this team, assuming he can be passable in CF.
