The Sox have a better chance of winning their division than the Phillies do theirs.

Thoughts on the potential infield logjam the Sox will have if Machado comes here? Will Madrigal be traded? Will he play 2B and Moncada goes to CF?

Boozer wasn't even that bad, but that signing felt disappointing since the Bulls had to settle for a second tier player because they missed on an elite talent. Moustakas would be the same way.

What about Harper?

That is like trying to sign LeBron and then ending up with Carlos Boozer.

To be fair, that tweet only says that they're willing to meet his demand in terms of years...not money.

Is this guy legit?

We really need Harper to go to Philadelphia. If he goes to San Francisco or pretty much anywhere other than the Phillies, this could end badly for us.

If nothing else, I'm confident on Machado just by the process of elimination. Philly is more interested in Harper, the Yankees almost certainly aren't happening, and the Padres are probably just being used for leverage. That leaves the Sox. Just gotta make a fair offer and he's most likely ours.

I don't even know how I'd react if they got both

Lmao

I expect peavy44 to break the news.

Well yeah, money is probably the deciding factor but I'm just wondering if they would be willing to share the spotlight if the Sox offered each of them the most.

Is there any evidence that Harper and Machado are friends or even on speaking terms? I suppose there's a possiblility (however slim it might be) that they would want to team up together a la the 2010 Miami Heat.

I still don't think they'll get both. They might not even get one. But it's fun to dream.

Imagine if the Sox Twitter account announced both of them at the same time out of nowhere. No leaks, no Rosenthal, nothing.

But but the weather!!!

Manny Machade to the White Sox confirmed!

If he goes to the Giants, we're fucked. He needs to go to the Phillies.

700 PAGES!!!

If nothing else, we now know that J Michael Robertson is full of it. He said this would be done yesterday.

I'll bet one of Greg's houses that Machado signs with the Sox.

He's back...

Jack is going to wake up to a shit storm of notifications this morning ?
