Machado wouldn't have ordered black and white gloves if he wasn't playing for a team whose primary colors are black and white.

shipps Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I would believe the glove thing if it was more of a behind the scenes leak somehow. Since it was Rawlings I just can’t see them being allowed to release that info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be a lot of effort for a troll job, if anything Rawlings could have just made a Machado glove in different teams colors and asked which glove looks better and what team do the commenters hope he signs with.

KrankinSox Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 (edited) The Rawlings gloves are real people. That doesn't mean Rawlings knows he is signing with the Sox. But if you are Rawlings, that's a great post to generate a ton of clicks. Could simply be that Manny told them the design he wants for the season so they saw that as an opportunity for some clicks. EDIT: And if this is the case, it's likely that he is signing with the Sox. He designed them because he's going to be playing here. That doesn't necessarily means Rawlings knows.

Seems really stupid and short-sighted. Exactly this. These gloves are a good sign. If you don't think so then you are being guarded or pessimistic. The Sox fan mentality is hilarious. Yankees fan on twitter see this obviously Sox colored glove and take it as a sign that he's signing with the Yankees. Sox fan's see these gloves and its a Rawlings troll job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
