I've honestly felt all along he is going to NY. But I want him on the Sox and am slightly optimistic about our chances. Hopefully there is 0 truth to this.

NWINFan Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I don't care where any of these players sign. I'm sick of Major League Baseball and its obscene greed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam8610 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 So one report from one guy who may or may not be legitimate and everyone here is just ready to accept that it's over? I haven't heard Manny Machado announce where he was going yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most are taking it about as much as when a favorable tweet comes out about the Sox. Examples: Positive Tweet about the Sox from a nobody: random people have broken news in the past! Negative Tweet: why would anyone listen to this guy? Edited December 28, 2018 by soxfan2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sockin Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) I get it, Machado wanted to play for the Yankees. But until the Sox sign someone of significance there will always be the stigma that players just don't want to come here. The culture or stigma around this team needs to change and it needs to change in a hurry. Edited December 28, 2018 by Sockin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the source of the Sox/Machado rumors last year. This guy is legit. He's the equivalent of Scot Gregor or Chuck Garfein.
