Then there is no incentive to up the offer

Wait for the sprint at the beginning of March ready with a best offer

This. If they don't have intentions of going after Harper next, why the hell hasn't this happened.

Read the thread.

That is what others seem to be advocating for.

Why? It appears there are only 1 or 2 other teams willing to offer him anything. The Sox are doing the right thing here. MANY stupid people can't seem to grasp this concept.

There was Peavy, I guess, through a trade, but his arm predictably fell off. Manny's young, solid, consistent, I don't see much risk factor.


I expect him to possibly be the best player in Chicago for many many years.

I expect that to be Eloy or Bryant even if we sign Machado

Kris Bryant?

That’s the one

Bryant back to his old swing. He'll probably win the MVP again.


The current Chicago Champ is Javy Baez

The good dolphin analogy is correct. Being too rigid can break you or make your spouse hate you.

Machado's actions in the playoffs could be very beneficial to the Sox.

Yeah. It could also be more bullshit reporting.

I just don't buy it. I think this going to be one of the reasons for a strike. And I get making $25+ is a lot, but this is happening more and more.

He doesn't play ball "The Cardinal" way and St. Louis is an awful place to live. It's going to the the Angels. Arte Moreno pisses money, they have the latino nightlife, the big city environment he is looking for yet their players remain almost completely under the radar. It is a perfect landing spot and they will have plenty of money to spend as Trout is not going to sign another deal with them.

I never thought he was ever coming here but anyone who believes anyone other than Machado right now I feel comfortable saying is just an asshole guessing who could be right.
