The Score spent a few minutes discussing this Portillo's tweet.

 

This is funny. Obviously a joke towards the Machado crap from a few years ago.

Same agent too. What if that’s part of his strategy? Lol

Next Hendriks will be debuting his black and silver glove!

No no no, as we know, all professional athletes sign with Florida or Texas sports teams. They avoid New York and Los Angeles.

It's just a time for accountants to get excited that people are actually going to discuss tax law.

Which spring training site or training facility is he pitching at? I’m guessing the photo was taken this year.

Which spring training site facility is this at and when was the photo taken? 

I have no idea 

This doesn’t apply to free agents?

I think that is Dunedin. Looks like Jays catching gear too

edit: upon further review, I don’t think it is Dunedin. It has a similar roof but the supporting columns don’t appear to be visible all the way to the ground like that

To each his own. I enjoy the discussions. 

I just read it without posting much now. It's same old same old ,nothing really new to discuss. Both sides use the waiting game. Sometimes it's to the players advantage like with Machado and other times it's to the owners advantage like with the saturated FA reliever market. Overall though I'd have to say it's a bigger advantage to the owners.

The logo on the right kind of looks like part of the Blue Jay but I can’t tell. The catcher is definitely wearing blue.

Like I said, no patience. Sometimes the journey is better than the destination.

Except when teams need money from the fans. Ticket packages are rolling around already.

 

I know, I know, the sandwich guy... More interested in the tweet he quoted. I guess there's two different ways to look at his response. Either the Sox are one of the teams (abandoning their pursuit of Hendriks), or the Dodgers bring him back (possibly ending their interest in Hendriks).

Yeah but they already have Kenley Jansen. Unless they are thinking about trading him. 

 

Is this RBH character going to become the new golden boy acct of the off-season?

Do you think he’s the new MLB Executive Burner? His tweets are kind of similar in a way.

The ML luxury tax is a joke.

Treinen back to Dodgers. They’re out on Hendriks almost definitely

They're taking a very "matter of fact" approach as opposed to the others, so in a sense I could see the similarities.
