IF (and a BIG if) he signs for that...White Sox were never serious about Bryce. 10/320 for Sox would be an amazing Harper contract considering his marketability with the new TV deal. I hope JR really was willing to go over 300 for him. Manny though becomes much more reasonable in the 260-275 range if Harper signs first. 

There's x factors we wont know about. For instance - maybe Harper wouldn't sign with the Sox under any circumstance? We would never know if the Sox could of had him for the same contract.

The Nats original offer of 10/300 was leaked and rejected before FA even started.  It goes without reason that all teams interested knew about this and that would be the starting point.  I have a hard time believing that the current offer is 10/310 and that only one team was willing to go only 10 million a year over the original turned down offer.  Any teams front office that said they were seriously interested in bringing him in and didn't assume the price was 300 million plus was what it would take, weren't serious about him in the first place.  So either more than a few teams front offices were lying, or this isn't the deal that gets signed.

Let's put it like this.  This is obviously just a leak to get a different team to up their offer.  There's still more going on, but it should end soon.  This is most certainly holding up the announcing Machado deal...

If Harper plane is N307KP then, a flight plan from Vegas to St Pete has been filed..  We are flight tracking level at this time.

Rick Hahn is meeting with Harper in St. Pete to drive him to Arizona to cover the White Sox tracks.

 

The only question is: Can they make it to Glendale by Tuesday?


Harper to White Sox CONFIRMED

The dream is dead. :(

I can damn near guarantee you that after Harper signs, this account's last tweet on the subject will be something along the lines of "was told Cubs were given final opportunity to match, but Theo decided it was not best use of team resources.  Smart decision by Theo."
