Finally...

I approve of the headline.

Oh, and great move by the Padres.

[Derwood]

Well apply that to Machado, then. If the rumors are true and that the biggest offers are from teams like the Padres and White Sox, it's not surprise that he's like "ehhhhhhhh" about signing

 

My post from this morning has really aged well

[Thed Hoyerstein]

sounds like 10 years/300m which makes this tweet very timely

Well look at the Padres reminding everyone they still exist

I like this because it 1. Doesn't help the big time contenders in either league and 2. Will actively hurt the Dodgers (in theory; I imagine Machado swings a game or two in favor of the Padres)

it's pretty pathetic but my favorite part of this offseason is the current state of white sox twitter

Everyone is a contender in the 2019 NL.

tatis, urias, mejia, paddack will all likely be up this year, followed by Gore next year if he's healthy all 2018. This was a very smart move by the padres

So now the Phillies do everything they can to get Harper and the White Sox are shut out

Unfortunately, the NBA trade deadline passed and the Bulls weren't able to negotiate a buyout for RoLo so they had a ceiling.

Unless you’re a Bulls coach around the holidays

[Butterscup]

Padres should now sign Harper and Cubs should trade Javy to SD so I have a team to root for again

Holy horsefeathers this kid.

padres are gonna cycle out their current shitty uniforms after this season and go brown again in 2020, so not only will the team be relevant but they will look good too

[UMFan83]

Will be interesting to see how the Padres go from here. They have a ton of talent coming up, but almost certainly there will be holes they need to shore up along the way. After Hosmer last year, Myers' extension kicking in next year and now Machado, will they have the money available to fix up those holes? Presumably yes but you never know with how the MLB operates these days.
