    nightenfail so expect manny to sign with nyy for $400m today
    • In a full column, USA Today’s Bob Nightengale cites four sources in reporting that Chicago has indeed issued an offer to Machado. However, while there’s no specific dollar amount revealed, he suggests that it’s “likely closer to $200 million than $300 million” in total value.

    Yeah...the would-be usurper usually fades by season end. But, as I see it, they didn't plan on it to finish that way...it just has.
    Whereas for us, we plan it our way.

    That’s why I don’t understand I would have let him walk

    Period if your hitting the reset button like they are showing now by not being interested in players that are true game changers and a once in a generation type player why not.

    If it were up to me I would have signed Mehchado and Harper and worried about the tax compliance later.

    You know what your getting with these 2 young studs


    With Seager and Belly although are talented but they have yet to build consistency

    1 sophomore slump
    2 injury

    lol idiots
    they essentially gave away stanton, yellich and ozsuna
    and now they're suddenly going to be financially responsible [and unrealistic] with realmuto
    doesn't matter if it was henry, huizenga, loria or [now] sherman and jeter
    that franchise has been a joke since day one and should have been retracted years ago
    only fitting that mattingly is the mgr
    fuck off
    time to pivot and go with a stop gap like hundley or cervelli

    MLB Network ✔@MLBNetwork
    "The Marlins are not wavering. They want a top 0-3 year player, someone like Cody Bellinger
    or Ozzie Albies, and on top of that they want some good prospects." @Ken_Rosenthal discusses
    the latest on the market for J.T. Realmuto on #MLBNHotStove.

    Start a fantasy baseball here in just hope for the best and hopefully fans stop going to the games to send a message that we are a big market team not the Rays Pirates or the A’s.

    I understand being frugal but when you have fans spending and buying gear and paying any means to watch your team compete and you put a bs bandage team out their why should I spend my money.

    Be frugal when you have to don’t pass up on these true once in a generation type players with youth.

    That is stupid.

    Realmuto is good but not a game changer type player but a top player in his position but not a franchise altering one. Duh

    agreed
    just need someone to hold it down until ruiz and/or smith are ready
    grandal got lots of praise for his framing, and it was well deserved
    but imo we should improve elsewhere and just get someone who can actually catch a baseball

    Disappointing to say the least. Harper rumored to want to play here. Stanton was vocal about wanting to play here. And we just pass? WTF?! Fuck the Dodgers. Watch us sign Pollock for 5/100 to get 2 average months per year and long DL stints. Keep throwing shit money around for borderline guys, but hey... depth. We were fucking outclassed in the WS this year, dipshits. We could go to the next 10 WS’s, but if we face Boston 2018 caliber teams we aren’t going to win shit. The Red Sox didn’t even play well and won going away!!! Fuck this bullshit depth, “buying runs”, money-ball horseshit. Think with your dicks once in a while. Harper sells tickets. Harper sells jerseys. God forbid we have a guy in 8-10 years from now chasing down 500 HRs. What good is fuck you money if you don’t say “fuck you” once in a while? Sign Harper to a franchise contract, asshats. It’s not that hard. God damn.
