I wonder if this was a plant by Philly FO to start cushioning the blow of losing out on both?

Many things. Maybe some of them will even involve Manny Machado.

What was said?

Hence the last sentence of my post.

I think they would've gone after Harper if they still had Tatis Jr. and I think it would've been the right call in that scenario. Or they might've waited for Trout. My hope is they'll get Machado and still go after Trout. Don't think it will happen, though.

You might want to bump the multiplier down.

They can afford Machado, they just don't want to pay luxury tax and recognize the value of what they have in Andujar.

I thought it was going to be no contest Mark Teahen, but apparently I'd erased Jeff Keppinger from my memory. That's a tough choice.

True. But I thought the mods were doing that intentionally to avoid the "megathread".

No, because they are not this thread. I thought the point was to not let the thread get that long.

I'd post it right now if you have some info.

You know Darius Leonard missed that game (and still led the NFL in tackles by 20), right?

Not at all. No shame for you. But likewise, I'm not going to apologize for being confident in my team that is 10-1 in their last 11 games and has allowed the fewest points in the NFL in that timeframe.

Well, at least he's not changing his story. I wonder what he'll say when Manny doesn't sign with the Yankees?

How's that being a dickhead anymore than proclaiming that your team is going to win? Anyway, back to Manny, SIGN ALREADY!

Well, I'd prefer my team win the game, so...

Last MVP to win the Super Bowl? Mahomes is great, but that team is one dimensional. 30th ranked defense and a run game that disappeared without Hunt. That's a shaky team.

You sure about that second part? The Chiefs tend to shit the bed against the Colts in the playoffs, and the Chiefs have looked shaky while the Colts have, well, not.

Or is it "Shy's the hint"?!?!?!

At that point, why shouldn't there be?

He'd look good in a White Sox uniform.

Leverage seems much more likely.

Leverage.

Ah, so it's a guy who works as a cameraman for ESPN, not an actual legitimate report.

Where?
