The White Sox announce the signing of Manny Machado at Soxfest......with Machado making a dramatic entrance to thunderous applause (I do like my drama).

I'd actually like seeing that, mainly because I can't stand the effing Cubs.
Hopefully if it happens they'll be able to build a winner around him and he won't be just a name to sell tickets.
A lot of ifs, but all are at least realistic. I('m still going with 2020 as the year we really start to bust a move, but no doubt if Machado does sign, with the uber-weak AL Central, anything is possible.If he's here, Eloy lives up to the hype and Moncada turns a corner. Suddenly we have a solid looking lineup.
Yep 2020 is when the window opens. They try to win at a .500 clip this year, then really push next year. Machado works because he's only 26, just entering his prime then. Like all big contracts the last couple years will suck, but that's the price you pay to try to get a ring in your window.A lot of ifs, but all are at least realistic.

Any second now would be nice. The Chris Johnson minor league signing isn’t going to propel them to the playoffs is my guess.The White Sox announce the signing of Manny Machado at Soxfest......with Machado making a dramatic entrance to thunderous applause (I do like my drama).
To defeat the Cubs, they must never be mentioned ever. Winning would also help.I'd actually like seeing that, mainly because I can't stand the effing Cubs.

When they call Eloy up in 2021, he should be pretty good.If he's here, Eloy lives up to the hype and Moncada turns a corner. Suddenly we have a solid looking lineup.
Definitely a risk but shit who doesn't want to win. If he signs it's because he buys into the Sox being an up and coming contender. Plus he could win an MVPDoesn't Machado just reek of a Raul Mondesi type guy who gets his money then collects his paycheck and plays out the string?
Yeah I know they are at different stages of their careers but wow.
That's why I'd like to see the ChiSox build around him. An offensive centerpiece in his prime.
He has to buy in though.

Well they still have tomorrow to make the dramatic announcement, but to be honest I thought it would have been made tonite.
