Hot take: baseball will be effectively dead in 20 years. All the tinkering is going to turn off the old fans while the changes don't endear enough young ones. The big 3 in America will be football, basketball, and soccer, although I think sports in general are going to see a big decline as...

I think there needs to be at least another team in the South. I think Manfred and most of the owners, if not all, agree. Whether that is Charlotte, Nashville, The Triangle, or some combination is anyone's guess at this point. I would like a team in Montreal and a team in the American South...

Kimbrel is 60 innings of great pitching. How is that not valuable?

Paul Crane knows absolutely nothing. Complete fraud. He was going around saying the Yankees were close with Harper/Machado before Machado signed with the Padres, and the Yanks clearly aren't a front runner for Harper. If you or I started a Twitter right now, we could say the same **** and...

Machado will only be 28-29 in 2-3 years and they have the best farm system in baseball. Heyman reports they may want Harper, too.

Largest contract in the history of American sports.

Albies Freeman Markakis Donaldson Acuna McCann/Flowers Swanson Inciarte Would be my lineup. 0% chance it happens with Snit unless FO pressure is applied.

Believe he was a 5 WAR guy dealing with injuries and the Bonds treatment just two years ago. That's about 180ish% the player Nick Markakis is just based on raw numbers and 100 some games. If it weren't for Mike Trout, Harper is the face of a generation. A total game changer.

Bryce Harper is a 26-year-old superstar who posted a 10 WAR season at 22 years old. This goes beyond his direct statistics. Pitchers are terrified of him and this would drastically improve the entire Phillies lineup. Spinning this as anything but bad for us Braves fans is the height of...

His bat is plus anywhere on the diamond.

Not good for Atlanta at all if the Phillies sign Harper. The Braves are instantly the 4th best team in the division.
