He would be a fairly expensive backup catcher.

Nate Jones for JBJ could make sense for both sides.

What happens to Castillo if they do get Grandal?

How do you ignore/block someone on here? I can't take Peavy anymore.

Maybe the Sox want to use Collins like the Cubs intended to use Schwarber. 1B/DH mostly and catch maybe once or twice a week.

And the Sox would have to give up a draft pick to sign him. No thanks.

Mother of god, I think this could actually happen

Yeah I don't get it either. Eventually this one will become a train wreck too. Probably by tonight. Lol.

Trade him for a haul now and then bring him back next offseason. Simple.

Thanks.

How do you embed tweets on here?

Harper: 10 years/425M Familia: 2 years/25M Gio Gonzalez: 1 year/6M Vogt: 1 year/2M Moustakas: 2 years/25M

The only way I see this happening is if the Sox sign Harper and then decide to "go for it" next season.

I think you guys are reading too far into things at this point. For one, obviously they're not going to spend 100% of their time and effort going after just Harper. They would be foolish to ignore other potential possibilities that could make the team better, whether that's pitching or other position players. As far as raBBit goes, I'm not sure why he retweeted that tweet but I think there's a fair amount of sarcasm that can be taken from it. I highly doubt that anything LaRoche related would have an impact on whether or not Harper would sign with the Sox this offseason. The LaRoche saga was almost 3 years ago at this point.

I'm on a forum with fans of all teams, and I made a thread asking what team they think Harper will sign with. I got 20+ responses so far and not one of them said the Sox.

Plot twist: peavy44 is Bryce Harper

At the end of the day, all the Sox really have to do is offer the most money and he'll most likely accept.

I love this forum lol

The amazing thing is that the Sox could totally afford both of them if that's what they wanted to do.

I'm going to piss my pants if the Sox get both of them

I'd put the odds on that happening at like 1%. No one in their right mind is going to take on that atrocious contract. The Cubs would have to package him with guys already on the MLB roster (Schwarber, Happ, Contreras) to have any chance of unloading him but that wouldn't make any sense for them.

I don't even know if Boras was involved in this scenario. Sounds like Harper could have told his friends what the offers were, that friend told the mutual friend, and then that info got on Facebook which is where Peavy is getting it from.

I would like one as well please.

Peavy44: I love you

Do you guys think the Sox are still interested in Machado or are they putting all their time and resources into Harper at this point?
