That clever Nutting is quietly biding his time until Harper, Rendon and Machado all turn 37 and get released by whatever teams they are with. Then he's going to swoop in and sign them!

Yes, when Machado becomes a free agent in another year, estimates are he will get about 300 million. Second only to Bryce Harper who figures to get about 400 million. Can you see Nutting signing that check? 




With that kind of money Machado and/or Harper could hire Nutting as their gardner!

You crack me up. Like he is truly a legitimate option here.

Orioles might be trading him this off season.  The Pirates could have all year to negotiate with him.  Or should the Pirates go after Harper?  I'm on the fence on who to pursue.  Ugh!




I hope this is sarcasm. We certainly don't have the goods in a deal to get him.

Are yall kidding? Of course we can sign Harper and Muchado. We have been saving and saving (financial flexibility) for a decade under Neal. It is very obvious that THIS is what he meant!! I can not wait for the announcement of the trades!!!!!! I am not wearing pants until it happens.

Do you think they will trade for them first or just sign them for 2019. Why give up those prospects?

We will trade for Muchado using over stocked farm system and sign Harper using several seasons worth of lift ticket money from our ski resorts.

I think Harper and Machado are so anxious to become Pirates that we shouldn't make them wait until 2019. I'm thinking Stallings for Harper and cash and Bostick for Machado and cash.
