YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I asked this like a week ago, but what do you think the odds are of the Sox getting Machado or Harper at this very moment? For me: Machado: 35% Harper: 25% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah with the question being: Who do you think the Sox will sign? The guy in the MLBTR chat the other day point out that trying to put odds on this stuff is weird because how can one possibly quantify odds or percentages on something like this? I'm clearly not an accountant or anything.... Edited November 8, 2018 by soxfan2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm clearly not an accountant or anything.... I actually think it's kinda easy. One, do you think the sox have a better chance than the field for either? If so it should be greater than 50% for a player But then if it's sox are favorite, but phillies second favorite, is it 45 to 40? then the rest is only 15% Are sox in a group of evenly distributed odds but a player? probably 25-35% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam8610 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 4 hours ago, Chicago White Sox said: There’s multiple reasons, but the main one is I think he’s the one guy who can actually change the trajectory of the organization. He’d add a level of excitement & fan interest unlike any other player and I truly believe we could use that right now. I think Machado would do the same, and doesn't carry the same injury and inconsistency risks, not to mention he plays the one position this team has no answers for in the rebuild (3B).

Baron Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I always hate the welcome posters for players Chicago sports teams try to sign. Have a bad taste in my mouth still from Carmelo Anthony. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 He'll probably meet with both the Sox and Cubs this weekend. I'd assume the meeting with the Sox will be at the United Center the day of the Bulls game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
