Machado signs with Padres 10/300

They aren't waiting til Soxfest to announce. They want the buzz leading into Soxfest to make Machado a big deal there. They want local and national attention. Thus, no deal is in place. Machado probably won't sign until he is forced to sign a lowball deal. Might as well wait to see if any teams make big trades to clear cap, for injuries, or pure desperation.

The staff rolled the dumpsters on through the Palmer House and someone got on a mic and declared "Ladies and gentlemen, you will see to your left the dumpster rolling through this great hall. Inside this dumpster is none other than your NEW CLOSER BILLY KOCH!!!!" And out he came, to mass cheers

Jeebus I liked that trade when it happened but then Koch came out of ST throwing 94 and got kilt. 

By the end of 2003, I was sad I couldn't say You got Foulked anymore when Foulke recorded a save.\

That was a bad trade in retrospect.

I can't tell what hat Manny is wearing, seems like a Dominican Republic hat or something but there's like a 5% chance it's a Sox hat. Anyone with Instagram care to weigh in? The account is @amberm2323 and it's a video of her kid batting with Machado and Alonso in the background

 

edit- and this is her story, not a post

I was ready to laugh at this but it does look like a Sox hat.. there's no way he would do that though, even if he signed

Lots of White Sox hats in those videos. I can see how one can think Machado is wearing a Sox hat. If I was a betting man I would say he’s not wearing one. Everyone else around him today was though.
