On to the links!
Here at The Good Phight:
- Justin wrote about what we are all thinking - it’s time for this song and dance to be over.
- I wrote something. Might be a tad controversial.
Other Phillies news:
- It does appear that this whole Manny Machado thing is finally reaching a crescendo. Apparently, the Yankees are out and it’s down to the White Sox and Phillies.
- Corey Seidman talks about Jake Arrieta and why more can be expected of the pitcher in 2019.
MLB esoterica:
- When it does come to Machado, it appears (to a Chicago based writer) that “momentum is building” to an agreement with the White Sox. Meanwhile, the Phillies look like they are about to offer an other contract package.
- We also have more about how the “likely” outcome is still Machado to the Phillies and Bryce Harper back to the Nationals.
- The Giants have a new name for their ballpark.
- Another big free agent name is reportedly off the board, with Yasmani Grandal settling for a one year deal worth $18.25 million with the Brewers. Turning down a $50+ million guarantee to land with a contender is a very interesting gamble on Grandal’s part.
Until next time...
