I doubted Klentak, but I am so happy to look like a fool. I bow down to the master, Matt Klentak. Thank you!

Middleton wined and dined Harper into signing. Also, CBP means something to these players.

I'm floored by the AAV, which is Jake Arrieta money. This almost seems like a deal designed to enable the #Phillies to sign a second prime free agent in two years.

i don't know who this is but **** him for making me somehow even more excited

Trout hates the Phillies I hear and would never play in this filthy town. It must be a pitcher he is referring to.

My source says trout hates philly and the phillies as much as Harper does and can't wait to play for the Giants or Dodgers for less money and years.

Quit using the Heyman sources

ED YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD

Thank god this got done today. Have a funeral tomorrow, and it would have been an awkward place for a fist pump and a FUCK YEAH scream.

I was pretty bummed when Werth signed with Washington even though the money was too much. So this feels like some kind of amends

Spoke to Boras, who told me: “We had average values of $45M offered on shorter term deals. We had a full buffet.” Said length, commitment now and in future offered by ownership, plus ballpark turned Harper to the #Phillies

Best chance at 800 HRs and being an all-time legend.

Funeral is just outside DC, so... probably less forgiving.

Ummm....I think you guys glossed over the Arrieta post from the previous page. (or at least you don't want to acknowledge it)

by **PTOITWCFTPP** » Thu Feb 28, 2019 16:42:24

The ballpark we always knew would play a factor but goodness it sounds like it was a HUGE factor

by **cartersDad26** » Thu Feb 28, 2019 16:42:29

Mad props to you on this one. It probably is exactly what happened. I was thinking about this right when it broke too.

Fastest to 50 bitches. Lets do this.

by **Bucky** » Thu Feb 28, 2019 16:42:58

well, i favored machado over harper all things being equal, but i prefer harper $25M AAV over Machado $30M AAV since the goal is still the Big Fish
