Pretty much every team that sign a player when they were young got good value. Pretty much everyone who signed a player over 30 fucked themselves.

100% correct. I think NY is trying to sell him(Machado) on winning now, when he only cares about $$$. I think Harper or I should say Boras as 2 offers, and is trying to drum up interest with LA and maybe the Cubs. Neither are dumping salary to add him, nor should they. It makes 0 sense for either of them to add a $35-$40M player for 10yrs to their team.


This is why JR is reported to have taken over the negotiations on this deal. He isn't going to let Boras play his team while he stands by.

I cannot for he world of me see how that helps the Reds.

Dodgers "Hi...how would you like to help us clear out the final year of a bad contract and player that's a douchebag so we can sign Bryce Harper?"
Reds "Sure....we have no chance of seeing the World Series, so we'd love to help you win one."

I'm sure that deal has more pieces....just thinking Dodgers would have to give up more to take on Kemp. Puig isn't that kind of difference maker.

Why not sign Harper then make the trade? This may be nothing.

Per heyman twitter:
Manny Machado has conveyed to the three known interested teams — White Sox, Yankees and Phillies — that his decision will come after the new year.

Obviously no one matched his team's perception of his market value and they will be going on a fishing expedition.

Make a decision! Hopefully brother-in-law is very good to him for Christmas.

Homer Bailey contract.

Kemp is free. Puig is cheap. Wood is cheap.

The Reds really wanted to move Homer Baily’s money and the Dodgers were shopping all their OF’s except Bellinger. They were able to do that without moving any of their top guys (though Jeter Downs has a chance to be pretty good). Plus they get Alex Wood.

Now Harper/Boras are hoping Machado signs with the Yankees. Boras knows the off season will be a complete and utter failure for the Sox and Phillies if they miss on both guys so he’ll use that as leverage to drive up the Dodgers offer. Boras wins again.

I heard an interview from Saturday with Alonso where he said he would be spending time with Machado during the holidays and that while he will respect Manny's decision he will be pushing him to play for the Sox. I think that is a pretty strong force continuing to advocate for us, where other teams are now left to only stand on their offer. I also expect he will be talking to his sister about the situation.

My guess is that he really wants to play for the Yankees but that they have given him the worst offer of the group. That is why he needed the holidays to do some soul searching. A nice holiday with family may be just the event to turn the tide in our favor.

He will go to whoever pays him the most.

Sort of tough to bang baseball Annie's while your sisters husband is around. I don't see Alonso being on the team as much of an appeal to him.

Which, reportedly, will not be the Yankees.
