This is good news for all Yankee fans who want Machado or Harper. Most likely Machado. I was shocked at that offer personally. I'm hoping. Even if he has to take less (maybe 6 years at $150), maybe it would sway him enough to sign with New York rather than Chicago? But who know's what Philly is offering? I still think he's going there because I've heard Philly wants him more than Harper and I believe Philly is going to get at least 1 of them. And yes, DJ is going to move around the infield.

Like the Ottavino signing. And this is off topic, but has anyone seen Judge’s home and road splits? Why do you think there’s such a drastic difference? You would think he’s playing in Coors Field if you look at them lol. But it does concern me a little bit. Yeah his numbers are considerably better at home. Thankfully he plays 81 games there but I agree, his road numbers need to improve as well. We’re on the same page

How does everyone feel about the Arenado rumors? I don’t buy them at all. Honestly, I wouldn't mind waiting for him next offseason, as long as they get him. They're both 4 time All-Stars, whereas Manny's won 2 Gold Gloves and a Platinum Glove. Arenado meanwhile is a 6 time Gold Glove winner, 2 time Platinum Glove winner and a 4 time Silver Slugger. Offensively, they're pretty neck and neck. Machado for his career has a WAR of 33.8, 3,720 ABs, 522 runs, 1050 hits, .282 AVG, 175 HR, 513 RBI, 53 SB, .335 OBP, .487 SLG, .822 OPS. Arendao: WAR of 33.1, 3348 ABs (fewer), 524 runs (more), 975 hits (fewer), .291 AVG (higher), 186 HR (higher), 616 RBI (higher), 13 SB (fewer), .346 OBP (higher), .539 SLG (higher), .886 OPS (higher). So basically Arenado is a better defender and as good, if not better hitter without the "I'm not Johnny Hustle" comments. And they're only a year apart in age: Manny's 26 and Nolan's 27. https://www.baseball-reference.com/...ml&bottom=/players/c/cabremi01.shtml

Basketball I don't mind too much, but yes, MLB gets the leftovers except during the summer when they're no other sports going on. Also, a trade between the Reds and Yankees might be going through for Sonny Gray. Cincinnati is engaged with Gray about a contract extension (since he'll be a free agent after the 2019 season). If it goes through, it looks like the Yankees might receive prospect second baseman Shed Long and the Reds 2019 competitive balance pick, which is a sandwich-round selection currently slotted in at No. 36 overall. If the deal falls through, the Yankees will look elsewhere since they had offers from multiple teams they’d have accepted for Gray as of last Friday, so if talks with the Reds don’t pan out, those proposals could once again come into play

How does everyone feel about the Arenado rumors? I don’t buy them at all. What's the rumors? The Rockies will pony up on this one, if he leaves (or more like they let him leave) they wouldn't sell 150 tickets a game. If Colorado is unsuccessful in extending him this season, they could trade him at the deadline. That way they at least get something for him and they can always sign him as a free agent. If Harper doesn't resign in D.C. the front office should be fired. They'll have let him leave without getting ANYTHING in return for him. At least Baltimore smartened up and traded Machado to L.A. before the deadline.

Football is officially over. Now let’s see if ESPN focuses on baseball with 2 huge free agents still out there Don't bet on it. I put on SportsCenter this morning and the first half hour was nothing but football. I turned it off after that. Then when it comes time for the draft and the stupid combine, they'll find a way to devote more time to that as well. I can't believe Harper nor Machado haven't signed yet. Crazy That makes 2 of us. Can't believe they're still unsigned and pitchers and catchers report next week.
