Bautista to White Sox CONFIRMED! Only if he's friends with Manny will the Sox sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 My scoop from 12/17, which I can no longer quote anymore because the thread is locked, but you can check out HERE Quote Abreu is in Chicago right now for this pitch. On 12/27/2018 at 4:35 PM, Chicago White Sox said: Plus other parts of that rumor (Manny staying in Chicago through Wednesday, Abreu being in town for the pitch) were seemingly debunked. 5 hours ago, southsider2k5 said: Abreu was part of the Machado pitch. ? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, that makes zero sense there would be no leaks over all this time. How did Lozano get that out there?

EloyJenkins Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Mlbtraderumors has a really nice breakdown of trying to figure out these "mystery teams". Based on all this, outside of the Mets or Padres going extremely bold....I just don't see any of them approaching or topping 250 total. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/01/trying-to-identify-mystery-teams-for-manny-machado.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't find it on twitter, was it on MLB Network? Only thing I saw was this in his latest article on the Athletic about the Mets... "If I were the Mets — or for that matter, any other team with the financial wherewithal — I’d offer eight years, $250 million to both Harper or Machado, say it’s available to the first taker for 48 hours. I’d line up the necessary trades in the event either player accepts. And I’d negotiate the other contract language — opt-outs, no-trade provisions — only after I came to an agreement." Doesn't say anything about the Sox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Sacamano Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Is he going with what people assumed was the offer after WSD said it was at 8 years and COULD BE for $250m? I have not seen those numbers anywhere else other than that time, which he may be running with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) Ken suggests that the Pads or Mets should go 8/250. Martino is saying that The White Sox are close to that. He isn’t saying Ken said that. He is confirming that those numbers are close to where Chicago is. Suggesting he has inside info on the Sox offer.
