142 Days until Opening Day. March 20th, 2091, Oakland and Seattle in Tokyo. Real schedule begins March 29th. To make the time past, post all the deals and rumors here! Yankees are "lukewarm" on Manny Machado. He would be a good fit, with the team wanting to move Miguel Andujar to the OF and Didi Gregorious having TJ surgery. He would be a dig at the Red Sox, who hate him about as much as Milwaukee. His recent fuckery is going to cost him big, www.sny.tv/yankees/news/sources-after-postseason-antics-yankees-lukewarm-on-signing-manny-machado/299924774Patrick Corbin drawing interest from Yankees, Phillies, Nationals, Corbin does seem the perfect fit for the Yanks, New York State guy (from Syracuse) and he threw 200 innings last year. But how well will he do in the Bandbox? I don't think any big name will be signed until one of the Big Two sign. Probably Machado. Seeing so much MM to NY rumors. Wondering if the Hatred that the Red Sox have for Machado is piquing interest? Both sides have been guilty of making moves just to piss the other off. See Rodriguez, Alex. Funny, people just became aware that he's a dick in the playoffs. Cheapest slide I've ever seen. He was a contortionist trying to fuck with Pedroia's knee.

Happy with that. He and Mitch Moreland make a nice platoon. He can DH and play corner OF. Seemed to fit in with the team and Alex Cora. One year, 6.25 million, cheap. Now Eovaldi, please. He won't be cheap and it will tie up a lot on money in the rotation. 67 million due already to Sale, Porcello and Price. But he was incredible after they got him for diddly. For the life of me, I did not realize he had such filthy stuff. Add Ed Rodriguez and Boston has an amazing rotation, as good as Houston, better, if keuchel leaves. And Eovaldi will be cheaper than Keuchel.

I don't see the Yankees going for Harper. They really don't need a power hitting Of, do they. And they seem to be cool on Machado. I'll be shocked if they don't sign Patrick Corbin. He's a Yankee fan and fills a need. And I think they sign or trade for another starter. CC is gone, Tanaka is fragile, Sonny Gray is gone. And I think they resign JA Happ. I'd put my money on Harper (if he doesn't stay in DC, a real possibility) going to the Cubs. He likes Joe Maddon and Joe likes him. He could thrive under Maddon's fun regime and he might thrive getting out of the "savior of the franchise" tag. Philly is possible but they need a lot more than people think. He wants the possibility for a WS soon. Machado, I don't know. He really fucked himself. Not the ankle stepping. But teams are scared of the "I'm not Johnny Hustle" and not running out a ball hit to the OF wall. From a guy who hit .182 with ZERO XBH's. Teams will think "If he can't be bothered on the big stage, how will he be when he get eight years guaranteed". Someone will sign him, could be a Hosmer-eaque shocker. Giants open to Bumgarner trade talkswww.mlb.com/giants/news/sources-giants-open-to-bumgarner-talks/c-301133404?partnerId=ed-13279340-1109238043Multiple sources indicated Monday that the Giants are willing to engage with other teams about the possibility of dealing their ace and three-time World Series champion. The Brewers and Phillies are among the teams that have had at least preliminary dialogue about trading for Bumgarner, sources say.

I know at one point I saw the Braves were mentioned in talks for him at one point. He's apparently from the Georgia-ish area so it had a lot of Braves fans wanting to get him or sign him next offseason. I personally think I'm more into the idea of Kluber who is signed for a few more years if trading for a guy.

I'm not exaggerating, he had Koufax-like stuff. 100+MPH fastball and a devastating secondary pitches. Yankees don't sign Eovaldi. Yankees don't sign Corbin. Yankees don't trade for Goldschmidt. Are they being responsible, meaning they won't touch Harper and/opr Machado? Or are they saving up for both?

Can't blame em, but still. I didn't really see them as contenders for Eovaldi simply because of his time spent in the Bronx a few years ago, even though he was a completely different pitcher then who has obviously since found himself. I just can't see them going hard after Harper after getting Stanton last year. They'd be allocating $60-70m to 2 OF spots for the next 7 years, not to mention Judge will eventually be a FA (but he has 4 years to go I believe). Granted, Harper can swat 50 HRs in his sleep swinging for that minor league sized right field, but still, that's a lot of cheddar for 2 corner outfielders, even for the Yankees and even for guys of Stanton's and Harper's ilk.

The Yanks don't need either Harper or Machado. But the fans and media are already screaming www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/yankees/nathan-eovaldi-red-sox-1.24285076When the Snakes put Goldschmidt on the block, I thought the Yaks would get him. 1b hasn't been strong since Teixeira left. Greg Bird is as fragile as a real bird. They liked Luke Voit, but he's Luke Voit. They could have outbid any team for Goldy, still had a good farm and had a terrifying lineup. And the fans would have been giddy. Hey, glad they didn't

When he's hitting .208 in July, everyone, including him, will remember.

Does anyone think that Bryce Harper will live up to whatever contract he gets? Heβs going to be getting A-Rod type dollars but not have A-Rod production. I guess $300 million is the new $100 million.

I personally don't think anyone could ever live up to such a contract unless they were paid from age like 22 to 32 and that won't happen with arbitrations and rookie deals and such. Once a guy is eligible to sign such huge deals for like 10 years they're bound to be bad during like the last 3 or 4 years. So unless they win MVPs those first 6 seasons and get some championships I don't think anyone can live up to the whole thing.
