The da*m may be busting - Machado signs for $300M

Now let's see what saps sign Harper for that much (or more).

I kinda see that as one bullet dodged for the White Sox


Feb 19, 2019, 1:17 PM

right now. Still need to see what some pups can do before breaking the bank.

Phillies will sign Harper, for more, within a couple of days***

Re: They can have him - he will fit right in


Feb 19, 2019, 1:23 PM

If he starts his head case act they will turn on him like there is no tomorrow.

10 years though. If dude was 21, that would be signed


Feb 19, 2019, 1:25 PM

until 31. He is 26. No way he is still playing NEAR that level at Greenr's age. This contract seems excessive.

Of course, he won't be playing that level at 36...


Feb 19, 2019, 1:27 PM

But this is what it takes to sign players like that.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He could play in the AL and DH.***

He made a great choice. I would take the 300 million to live in San Diego over Chicago.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

After taxes though, can he even afford to live in that

Feb 19, 2019, 1:31 PM

I bet the taxes in Chicago aren't so great either. I bet the taxes were high in just about any spot that would pay him.

The question is, will they win?


Feb 19, 2019, 1:30 PM [ in reply to Re: The da*m may be busting - Machado signs for $300M ]

(Or the question may be, who cares if they don't?)

They've got what is commonly rated as the best farm system currently in baseball. So they have a chance to be really good in a couple of years.

However, if a lot of the prospects bust, this contract will look ugly.

Re: The question is, will they win?


Feb 19, 2019, 5:02 PM

They will need some young aces to come up that they don't have to pay much.

How's in the heyll is he gonna play baseball and still have


Feb 19, 2019, 4:38 PM

What's interesting is that the Padres have the 2nd ranked prospect in all of the minor leagues who is supposed to come up this year. Fernado Tatis jr and he is a SS too.

Machado can play 3B which he has most of his career. But....


Feb 19, 2019, 6:50 PM

San Diego, really!

Sure great weather and craft beer. But if you want to win rings it's not in SD!

Wonder who offered him similar contracts?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I know. I wish my Yanks would have signed him. ****
