Orlando Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I know we seem to be bi polar in this group, but Padres fans are freaking out after Ken’s tweet so at least we know we aren’t the only insane fanbase. We should get more slack though, we have dealt with this much longer than them. ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s gonna be a completely different outcome this time ? I can't remember if you claim to be an insider or if you are just going on gut feeling. Which is it? Either way, I tend to agree with your posts. We are landing Manny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually more relieved instead of pissed/disappointed when I thought that the Sox were going to miss on both guys and they were going to SD and PHI last night.

conorbrien816 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 What do you guys think of this list? https://www.buzzfeed.com/conorobrien816/top-10-white-sox-players-to-watch-for-the-2019-sea-3s54c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirdog Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Based on my 3ish months of research, I think White Sox have best offer to Machado. padres have intimated that they would match but need to exceed by a bit and have pitched creative ways (deferrals, signing bonus etc)...but in the end, in today’s dollars, the white Sox (who will front load contract to afford more talent later) still have best offer. If not for Padres trying this smoke and mirrors, it would be done already. but it will be done and likely shortly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we reached those depths of depravity, now? That the story behind the story behind the 98.6% writing about this story who aren't professionally sourced or getting paid to do this for a living, is somehow more significant and symbolizes the times we live in, in terms of sports consumption/sports news....? BRING BACK A SIMPLER ERA, LIKE "THE NATURAL," WHEN BATS HAD NICKNAMES AND EACH TEAM HAD ONE REPORTER COVERING IT FOR THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER...and one radio announcer.
