Unless I'm reading Keyser wrong the Sox are trying to sign both. I doubt they aren't serious.

You're reading it wrong.

Do you think Machado is the best fit?

Interesting. Do you think Harper will be worth the big contract?

Depends how big they have to go. It might be best to wait for the guy next year.

Why?

Harper's left handed bat fits the lineup much better and it would be much easier to move guys around him than it would to move guys around Machado. Plus Machado comes with a lot of baggage. Maybe too much.

They're gonna need to find a shortstop somewhere.

I'm not at all saying the Sox are going to land one of these guys, but I'm starting to think if they land one they are going to do everything possible to land them both. Drunk.

They want to sign one of them. They want Harper more but he’s pricing himself out.

The butthurt bunch really got their panties in a twist yesterday.

Not sure how you take that when they have said, they are willing to spend.

Considering MANY other teams are involved those are great odds. He is the guy I would want.

Maybe it's MANY but probably not. It's Philly and the White Sox. I just hope there isn't a sticking point about shortstop. I hope that isn't a factor. Philly wants him at 3rd. The Sox can offer him shortstop but will they?

This is the same kind of crap you pulled yesterday. Name names, or don't say anything. Its really that simple. Beating around the bush and giving vague answers like this is a bitch move IMO.

20 percent with the Sox

If they don't sign Harper, they fucked this offseason up, even if they sign Machado. Brantley, I think was the final nail. If they don't land Harper, who is playing RF once Eloy is up mid April? I guess you could swing a trade.

I think an outfield bat is easier to find. Signing Machado would make this offseason a success.

I agree on Machado, but so so on the RFer. At this point, no one on the FA market is interesting. It would be giving up assets in a trade. I would like to see them explore a trade with Arizona for Greinke. Not sure if they have any RFers.

If they sign Machado, in theory, the rebuild was a success.

Machado would probably be the best signing as well as value. Breaking our hearts on another slugger OF eventually DH that is not everything we hoped he'd be would crush the base.
