I hope Rick concludes any offer with "and that's our Guaranteed Rate....(wink)"4 points

I can confirm this. My source says Manny's agent was pushing to fulfill their meetings with NY and Philly this week, out of respect for their teams and keeping a relationship for his agent, but seems like Manny was wanting to sign today. I have never been more confident in the Sox signing either of these guys than I am now after talking with my source. Yankees and Phillies meetings could obviously change that if they slam dunk it, but I think it's happening you guys.4 points

Just scroll down his twitter. They were supposed to announce a Harper signing last week at 1:30 or 2pm. He didn’t even delete it. Then said the Sox hoped to have Manny in on Thursday. Surprise, it’s Monday. Then said things would really get quiet for a bit, so naturally within hours McCann is signed, Alonso trade goes through, and Manny’s meeting is confirmed. Eventually he will be right about something, but he clearly is just throwing shit at a wall hoping something sticks, and people will believe he is what he isn’t.4 points

He has literally now said not to believe the idiot who says a deal with Dodgers is close and to not believe the idiot who says a deal with the Dodgers isn't close lol4 points

I know people are excited and thing maybe things are changing. I myself, think Machado is a done deal ever since Alonso was acquired. But.... if somehow Both of the big guys sign elsewhere, and the Sox winter acquisitions are Nova, Alonso, McCann, and Colome, I am going to be more upset than I was last season.3 points

He’s a good player. if the Sox signed him, he would probably play about 35 games.3 points

You've mentioned that. The fact that MM is in Chicago right now and is 1/3 teams he is visiting in person this week, evidence seems to suggest otherwise.3 points

Those skinny jeans with that jacket have me cracking up. Men's fashion is so bizarre for younger guys now.3 points

I dunno, I'm kinda worried about the dynasty the Sox just handed the Indians by relieving that pile of money originally meant for Alonso.3 points

But if that IS the actual contract he potentially signs, will you ever know what to trust again? WILL YOU EVER KNOW WHAT IS TRULY REAL!?!?!!?2 points

I think it we sign both guys, it means we’ll be rocking $175M payrolls for the foreseeable future.2 points

Jerry is absolutely "loosening the pursestrings". I don't know what else exactly it is that people need to see or hear to believe it but it's true. Will either guy end up signing? No idea. It won't be because of money though.2 points

FWIW, Kaplan said on Sportstalk Live tonight that he has heard from multiple people that if Machado and Harper don’t sign with the Sox, it won’t be because of a lack of money. He adamently said that they won’t be outbid.2 points

Cmon man, it says he is a journalist with integrity right there on his twitter page. That seems legit to me.2 points

I really don't think it matters, Machado grew up in America and speaks fluent English anyway2 points

I think Renteria is probably a much better asset in the Machado sweepstakes than Gabe Kapler or Aaron Boone.2 points

Let's be honest, if Manny said I will sign with you if you fire Ricky, they would fire Ricky.2 points

you know what? Props to Levine for that. I appreciate that effort. Very college head coach search-y, but I'll take it. Also maybe they could have given him a camera with a lens instead of his nokia phone.2 points

At least another 7 pages of how the Sox FO screwed up another chance to assist them in getting Machado because it didn't cost the Phillies much to acquire Yonder.2 points

Around these parts I kind of highly doubt the Johnny Hustle comment has anything to do with people wanting Harper over Machado. There's a variety of reasons but Harper just changes the way people look at this franchise which is important for many reasons. Personally I'd be thrilled with either but I'd favor Bryce as well.2 points

My predictions: - Bryce Harper will get a record setting contract - Manny Machado will not Both will get more AAV than Stanton however. I am not even quite sure that Machado will clear 300. I'd put it at like 50/50. If this ages poorly please delete forum.2 points

yeah you're not getting a 5 WAR prime catcher who can also play 3B without giving up at least Eloy Jiminez2 points

Yes that huge $9M life preserver should make all the difference in the world to them. All I said was one bad season. They won't be getting much competition within the division next year but we shall see after that.2 points

We all know Machado would love to play for the Yankees, but let’s say we offer him 10/$350M while New York only offers him 8/$240M. How could he look his wife in the eyes and tell her he’s passing on all that guaranteed money and the chance to play with her brother for a period of time? To me, if the Yankees decide they’re unwilling to overpay for his services, then we can actually win this thing.1 point
