Bryce Harper said he wants to play for the Cubs if he leaves.

Longtime baseball scribe Peter Gammons told 670 The Score on Friday that Bryce Harper's preference is to sign with the Chicago Cubs when he hits the open market.

"I have people tell me that Bryce Harper, really, would prefer to play for the Cubs," Gammons said.

he would be awesome here but the media here would eat him alive. every tantrum he throws would be front pg news here. look at the attention Mr. Met got

would love to see the work he'd put in on that RF upper deck tho

Austin optioned to AAA

Austin optioned to AAA

He should come up paired with Bird and then Carter gets the boot.

AL GM said $400mil for Harper is light... Thinks it will be well above that..

Thinks if you can offer him a 15 year deal, you do it.

I'd go 10 year / $400mil... Possibly have some options for extra years on top.

 

[macbk]

15 years?? that's madness

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Not offering dude no damn 15 years the hell

 

[nick.]

If Judge hits ~.280 with 35+ HR, 100+ RBI for the 1.5 seasons, do we even go after Harper?

Yes.

Marketing money would be too high for Hal to pass up.

I don't think any team will offer 15. 12 would likely be the tops of it. But that team would probably end up pulling down the AAV

If Judge hits ~.280 with 35+ HR, 100+ RBI for the next 1.5 seasons, do we even go after Harper?

Yes.

Marketing money would be too high.

Then where do you put him?

Frazier is assumed to take over LF & Ellsbury is pretty much locked into CF until his contract expires.

Ellsbury may be impossible to trade. But they will not pass on Harper for Ellsbury.

He'll end up being an overpriced 4th OF and Pinch runner for a few years.

Here we go

got damn :x :x

Da Ace strikes again

 

[will0827]

Tanaka might need a stint on the DL.

 

[アミーゴ]

Knew it from the first pitch smh

 

[donewithjs]

Tanaka is caka, I pray he doesn't opt in for the final 3 of his contract.

After a season like this one I'd be shocked if he opts out

 

[nick.]

Sooo when is Gleyber coming up?

 

[naijaboy]

If it wasn't headley it would have been carter they both need to be out the line up

 

[essential1]

Even if you hate him. It's clear something is wrong. He's never even been remotely this bad

 

[アミーゴ]

We need a pitcher very, very soon

 

[YouGotThese]

We've been looking very subpar the past 12-15 games. Hitting is taking a slump and pitching is very bad other then CC of all people.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Headley

Who, Tanaka? I really don't think it's injury related because just two starts ago (against the A's) he went 7 innings 1 ER 13 Ks.
