Jack Parkman Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Exactly this scenario is why teams bid against themselves. It prevents another team from swooping in late and stealing the player with a slightly higher offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Padres have really offered that, my guess it comes with a ton of deferred money and the present value of it is substantially less. But regardless, offer 8/$280M and end this then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Sox can still wind up with Manny, either way they will have to pay up. They could have done it a long time ago though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxBlanco Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Haven’t been here in several hours. What is the panic about? Is San Diego a serious player?

Nightingale saying the Padres have offered Machado an eight year deal for somewhere between $240M & $280M. Heyman has suggested there be some deferred money.

Several people (most recently Nightengale) are posting potential San Diego offers that are higher than we've heard the White Sox offers to be.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 So it’s either 8/240 or 8/280...pretty large gap there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which i think is the third component in the Soxtalk Manny Machado flow chart. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
