Maybe, unless they were to get them both on sub $300M deals, I would be a little worries about hamstringing the payroll.

I didn't mean for people to think he had info, I'm just laughing at how unrealistic his expectations (and according to the comments, many Phillies fans) are about this situation. These guys would be upset if they didn't GET BOTH? Sheeesh, tough crowd.

No, I know, I'm just saying I'm surprised someone like him would be LET DOWN if they don't get both, and expect them to get both. The guy just seems pretty out of touch with reality on his take.

Yikes, and he's apparently an Emmy award winning sports anchor with 14K followers?

According to Quin, this means Machado is signing for $575M! What an idiot!

100% my dream scenario.

I wonder if thinks like wRC+ and xFIP are possible for college stats, or if there is way too much variation in skill levels for it to be reliable.

Fuck the Cowboys lost. Yay the Rams won ----- I realized as that game was going on that I was rooting for the Cowboys more often. But I don't know if that's just because they were losing and I wanted an exciting ending or not. Either way, CJ Anderson looked like a god damn stud.

Speaking of the college season, David Appleman discussed on a recent Fangraphs Audio that FG will be adding college baseball stats this season, like as the season goes on. No idea if that will include any advanced metrics, but that will be nice to have an easy place to track that stuff.

Yup. No reason to make statements like "It's got to be XX" or "We better take XX at that pick". We have no idea how this college season will play out. All I click those early mocks drafts are is to see the names and read the blurbs about each guy. I really hope Vaughn isn't the BPA at #3, but I have no reason to be worried yet.

You just select the downarrow and choose "copy link to tweet" and post it here. I haven't been following who this guy is or if it means anything, but Kelvin Herrera follows him on twitter, so that's a random fact.

Might still be meeting. It's like....5:45 in Vegas right now? They might be doing stuff all night like the Sox did with Machado. Might not find out until tomorrow.

Nope. He's never said a word about Harper, nor have I asked. So I have no idea.

I'm sober and now have found aforementioned video.

Nope. He basically just said they are waiting.

So I saw my source in person and he didn't have anything for me, sorry. It seems both sides are just in a staredown right now. I would bet Lozano is willing to accept the Sox offer today if there was some sort of deadline. I haven't heard anything to corroborate NotHahns' news about frustration, but maybe what I said above is why the Sox are frustrated? Because they feel like they have the best deal out there, but Lozano is willing to just sit on that offer until the Phillies decide they won't be getting Harper, and then have to offer up their "stupid money" to save face. No idea. That's all speculation on my part, as again, my source didn't have anything substantial to tell me.

I'm drunk but I saw a video of it online.

Nightengale says the Phillies may offer 12 yrs/$350M. I'm hoping they offer it tomorrow and he signs. Let's take out another landing spot for Machado. And if you are the Phillies, you SHOULD be trying to steal Harper away from the Nats. Feed 2 birds with 1 scone.

Lol I'll just let you know if I get another other than a random Chuck Pagano scoop. ??

We are both seeing our sources this weekend.

I think we would have all been rioting if the Sox took Larnach at #4, but hey, we shall see. That would be a helluva job by Fathom if Larnach turns out to be the 4th best guy from that draft.

Lol I have no idea why he randomly offered me up that info, but I guess he assumes I'm a Bears fan.

Evidently! ?

I was in that thread, I just don't recall anyone saying we should reach nearly 20+ picks to take Larnach.

There is no way you wanted Larnach at #4 overall pre-draft. You are being influenced by his amazing CWS, which happened after the draft.
