This is really something --
Joe and Evan v. Manish Mehta.
I'm not sure if it was performance art, or if my brain should be hurting because they were serious. Joe and Evan were discussing the lone reported offer to Machado:
1) one mentioned the lone offer is $175M/7, and the other one asked "so what's that, like $10M a year.....?". "No, it's $25M a years." 30-60 seconds of Machado talk, and Mr. $10M A Year confirms (as if he figured it out on his phone or with pencil and paper): "Yeah, that's $25M a year."
2) they then went on for a while on how all of MLB save the White Sox are fools for not making a bigger offer, because Machado is only 26 y/o, he's proven himself yada yada yada. No mention at all that maybe, just maybe, there's a reason that there are no other offers, let alone no other bigger offers, out there.
3) NY teams should go after Machado (long term) as that's just a bit more than MFY are paying Ellsbury, as if the Ellsbury contract worked out well for all involved.
There was more, but I had to get out of the car at that point.......
