This. Yolmer + Nate Jones makes sense to me.

Am I missing something? Why are so many people here disrespecting JBJ? 29 year old CFer with an ops north of 700. That's a solid player.

Not sure how their IF depth is shaping out. Yolmer for JBJ is reasonable if they want IF depth. I'm thinking they'll want relievers, though.

You want to save money by not signing a superstar positional player, but want to spend it on bullpen pieces? No thanks...

I don't need to. I remember them from previously checking. My mind is incredibly good when it comes to remembering and analyzing statistics. Dude hasn't even slumped for a week

Arenado is so overrated. His numbers away from Coors leave so much to be desired.

He hasn't really. Check the stats

I still think Lozano and Boras are working together to leverage massive contracts for their guys. Machado and Harper both wait it out until they get filthy contracts. Neither signs until they both get 375m+ contracts, bare minimum.

Maybe Boras and Lozanon are colluding together to get their guys the best contracts out there. Neither player signs until they both get 375m+ offers with multiple opt outs

The orlioles are giving a division opponent positive feedback on their former superstar so he can sign with them? Interesting...

This. Jose is more valuable to the Sox. Unfortunately, he just doesn't have much trade value given his age, contract, and position

Now were talking. If Jose gets traded for a package of Bukauskas and Beer, and I drive him to the airport, you get banned. If somebody else drives him, I get banned.

I'll drive Jose to the airport if this is the offer the Sox get. Bye bye Jose.

Ban bet?

While Harper to the Cubs makes me nervous, I just feel Machado makes more sense for them. Play him at SS or 3rd base, and move Kris to the OF if he plays at 3rd. Really depends if addison Russell is their SS next year.

Any more news from your source?

If it was true and for the reasons he stated, soxtalk may get some publicity. "The Bryce Harper White Sox signing first gained some validity when a fan shared rumors of his strong interest in a string of barely coherent rants on the White Sox fan forum 'soxtalk.com'."

This is.my favorite ever by peavy44. It had me rolling when I read this exchange. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?/topic/93379-september-callups/&page=3&tab=comments#comment-3048695

@peavy44 are they waiting until soxfest to announce it?

Lmao are you referring to the time peavy44 accused somebody of being racist (when they weren't) and got warned by a mod? That made me laugh so hard when it happened.

Ban bet?

Can we ban him if Harper doesn't sign with the Sox?

You'll be ok peavy44. Nobody has your FB info

peavy44 has a Ron kittle connection! This is awesome. I like that the typing is consistent lol

By God if peavy44 is right... We owe him all sincere apologies
