Never thought CC would last this long given how big he is.

I heard 8/$280 for Machado over the radio but of course it may not be official.

8/280 are you kidding me. He’s an idiot if he doesn’t sign that if it’s true.

That’s what I’m saying. If it’s true he better be on the first jet to San Diego. Idc how much money is deferred
Unless it’s just noise from his agent

If it’s true it’s the Jayson Werth contract all over again. Vastly overpaying to get a star in hopes it spurs a full on image rebuild. Their farm is good so we’ll see.

I still think he ends up with the White Sox. Now that Reinsdorf knows the number he has to beat now.
I think he signs for 8 and anywhere between 250-280. With an opt out after 4 or so.
We'll see. I feel like we should know this week.

No shot. He's going in as a Yankee.
Thinking out loud about it, his Brewers-postseason run was SPECIAL.

New Era is eliminating over 200 New York jobs to make cheaper MLB on-field caps
New Era, the company that holds the exclusive rights to manufacture and sell MLB hats, is closing down the union plant that sews hats for players to wear on the field of every game they play.
According to the Buffalo News, the plant is being closed so manufacturing can move to a non-union plant in Florida, while nearly 220 skilled workers at the Derby, New York, plant will be out of a job.
New Era ‘pivot’ from manufacturing to marketing
New Era, which was founded in Buffalo, New York in 1920, has spent the last several years trying to get out of the hat manufacturing business. The Buffalo News reported that with the exception of the plant that makes MLB on-field hats, all of New Era’s hats will be produced overseas by third-party factories.
So why isn’t that particular plant moving overseas? As part of the massive branding contract between New Era and MLB, MLB stipulated that all of its on-field hats need to be made in the U.S. So New Era is choosing to close the Derby union factory and move the manufacturing of those hats to a non-union shop in Florida.
As New Era closes all but one of its U.S. factories, it’s not lowering the prices of its hats, but doing other things with that money. The Buffalo News reported that New Era has spent millions of dollars on celebrity marketing, such as hiring Will Smith’s son to DJ a party in the hope that Will Smith himself would show up (he didn’t).
New Era has freely spent money on marketing. That includes lavish parties at all-star and championship games. It also includes naming rights to the Buffalo Bills’ stadium, which became New Era Field in August 2016 for a reported $5 million to $7 million annually over seven years.
