@wsd @raBBit  when will signal (?) be given?

Not from me. 

This seems to be playing out just exactly as the Sox needed it to. Yankees ownership is not playing ball. Machado/Lozano prefer Sox to Phillies.

I'm trying soooooooooooo hard to not get my hopes up.

After months of doing the same, this past week has totally flipped me. Once the New Year turned everything I've heard regarding Machado/Sox/Yankees has been optimistic for Sox and negative for Yankees.

Where do you think the Phillies stand in all of this?  Rumor earlier today that they plan to up their offer to Manny this week.  We know that Manny apparently prefers Chicago to Philly, and I am sure playing with 3 of his closest friends helps the Sox as well.  But if the Phillies come in and offer like 8/$300M - he still probably signs there, right?

Thanks raBBit. Seems like you get good info so I'm praying you're right!

It's time to get your hopes up. We're going to see some more bad baseball in 2019 with or without Manny, this is the time to enjoy White Sox baseball. ?

This is the fun part, for now.

Personally, I'm not getting my hopes up yet. I generally have a positive outlook on most things, but I'll believe this when it happens. There is obviously some actual good info backing up what Rabbit says, unlike that Australian douche guy on twitter, but I won't get high or low based on any reports. Lots could still change.

Seems like this could just as easily be about Harper as it is Machado. Making it seem like they aren't solely focused on Harper for leverage sake.

One of these guys needs to sign soon please.

The starting pitching will be extremely suspect but if they land Machado they might have the best lineup in the division. That is if Moncada improves and Eloy is what we hope he will be. a 3-4-5-6 of Machado, Abreu, Eloy and Yonder is pretty good.
