Jose Abreu Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 21 minutes ago, Quin said: I have a soft spot for Jon Jay, as he provided me with many RBI opportunities in MLB: The Show 2010 while he and my create-a-player were in the Cardinals farm system. Does this mean you're signing with the White Sox too? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 And Jon Jay is precisely the high OBP/low strikeout guy we need right now, Machado ties aside. He would've led the team in OBP last year (.330). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the sort of move the Sox would make if they knew Machado would sign here if they did it. I'm feeling really confident right now. Ha ohhh man if the Sox don’t get him it’s going to be darker than baltas body disposal day dreaming in here. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote4Pedro Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 He could be the Veteran mentor to the rest of the ass clowns we run out there on a nightly basis in the OF. Hopefully he’s signed tonight and manny follows suit in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxBlanco Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 2 minutes ago, G&T said: Look, if the Sox made an formal offer, then the total dollars aren’t the issue. There could be other issues, but I doubt it’s money. The Sox suck right now and it would be nice if Machado could enjoy a bad year with some friends. I suspect that’s why they are doing this. Hahn: Look Manny, we have a lot of good young talent, and we expect to be really good for a long period of time. Manny: But what about next year? It seems like you guys won't be truly competing until 2020/2021. Hahn: How about you get to play with your two best friends for that first year or two? Manny: Ok, go get Yonder and Jon and I'll sign. Hahn: Sounds good. Give me a few weeks and I'll have them both on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiSox Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I fully expect Machado to not sign, fans to lament the Alonso and Jay signings and then Alonso and Jay both have All-Star caliber years for the White Sox. Baseball. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 10 minutes ago, iWiN4PreP said: Money is the deciding factor, grabbing his league average buddies shouldn't be. W'Sox need to put on their big boy pants, offer him a respectable contract (and not pocket the surplus money from a team with such low player salaries) and they have him. The White Sox are adding Manny’s buddies because they want to a have tie-breaker in case the money is close with the Phillies and it’s a small gamble worth taking.
