It was around the time there was Joc smoke so maybe Joc related. In any event, it’s not bigger news than $1 beers at Kincaid’s which received ? ?

I think it has been made clear that the sources in the Sox organization of multiple people were very confident a move was about to happen, probably a Joc trade, and were surprised when it fell through at the last moment. Dave has gotten in trouble for scooping a potential trade too early before (which almost blew it up), so if the deal is still being discussed on different terms, I am guessing his source is asking him not to say what the deal is until it is renegotiated or fully falls through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in general I think what you're saying makes a lot of sense Could be that too, but I lean the other way just because Dave & others seemed to think something was close at the time and IMO a Realmuto trade seems more likely to fit that billing than a Machado signing.

Both of us love the Norse mythology but she is really into the marvel universe. I have her to thank for getting me into the marvel movies because I had not seen any until she took me to see Thor.

caulfield12 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) https://www.ibtimes.com/yankees-rumors-manny-machado-offer-low-new-york-still-has-chance-sign-top-free-agent-2756231 The Yankees are still supposedly involved...simply because many writers are choosing to believe the 7/175 offer over something like 8/240-260. At least some writers are invested in keeping their name involved, is a better way of putting it. The Padres and Lozano have nothing to lose going to Miami...that’s for sure. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2818457-manny-machado-rumors-no-decision-on-the-horizon-hasnt-met-with-padres-yet Even though Morosi noted Machado himself hasn't met with San Diego officials, Acee cited "multiple sources aware of talks between the sides" in his report. Per The Athletic's Dennis Lin, the Padres have "expressed interest" in a face-to-face meeting with Machado that could potentially take place in Miami.
