I don't sense any indication Harpo is coming here and you cannot trust Boras.

I would tend to think money is the first issue, location a close second. Do wealthy players really want to play an extra month of playoffs? Most of them likely do.

This is little more than a troll thread.

Boras makes it clear that there is no team loyalty and players are shopped around to drive the market up. That is his mo. The teams say just give me a number and he strings them along.

Ironically if Harpo and Macho brought their talents to the South Side it would suddenly become a destination in more ways than one. Bootstrapping their way out of Catch-22.

You're so deep and insightful. No need to draw a line in the sand for we are all sinners.

They will sign at half time while Janet Jackson does her thing.

Reading all the Harper rumors makes it pretty clear that nothing is. Maybe if the Sox sign his dad for bench coach.

I still figure the Sox will go 10/ 350 for either guy and should not go further. I would never get drawn into Scott Boras and his silly games. I would give him 10 minutes on the phone and let him get back to me. You have to draw a line and not cross it. I do not have any locker room sources.

We still need bullpen filler. I would have invited him to AZ. Wonder what Avi is up to.

There are people here who know a lot about baseball but seem to act rather juvenile.

Trolls will thrive as long as people keep reacting to them.

I would have moved the Cubs 30 years ago to a new yard built in the Woodfield Mall parking lot. Leave Chicago to the Sox.

In fairness the other teams got public funding. My issue with the Wrigley project is that most of it was for commercial development and I assume the owners were invested in that as well. I have really grown to despise developers. The idea of the public good or public trust is basically a fraud on taxpayers. Chances are when public officials support a development they have a finanical stake in it. It is rarely for the public good or altruistic.

Fake Ken Rosenthal has Sox closing in on Machado for 12/360 if you can believe it. Why not 20 years??

Jon Heyman expects the Sox will sign one of the Big Two.

Next step will be to integrate online betting with the games brought to you by Xfinity. Hoping I can hack someone else's account.

Having 22,553 viewers would be worth several trillion dollars per year. There must be play as you go adjustments.

Forget the FA's I am too distracted with Katy P's ladybits.

After Disco Demolition ruined the swampy field they poured a bunch of sand in right-center and Claudell was afraid to run over there to chase down the ball. That sign the next year was fabulous. Jimmie Piersall was looking for Steve Dahl to kick him one in the booty.

Shades of Brett Lawrie I hope not.

Jack Parkman, Ed Stroud, Todd Cruz, Terry Bevington, Charles Comiskey, Dayan Viciedo, Jose Paniagua, Adam LaRoche, Bobby Bonds, Claudell Washington, Jerry Dybzinski .

I would think it is a team concern. The team would need to write Tim a check if he is being switched to third. He had a decent season. A couple more veterans could take the glare off of Anderson and Moncada.

The Yankees and Red Sox keep extra hitters around who compete for playing time. Not a terrible idea unless you are a big Adam Engel fan.

If it turns out that the Boras-Harper venture was just waiting for the Dodgers to clean house then we have all been played.
