I can't help but think that Boras has overplayed his hand and his bluff is gonna be called...



But he has the Lerners in his pocket playing pocket pool so they may bail him out and give Harper a senseless deal.

Not sure you're right Spider - Bryce & Co may not get any seismic offers and settle in DC

Can't listen to that station up here. What exactly did he say? Did he imply that the initial 10/300 was still on the table but no more or what?

Sounds like the kind of thing you say right before upping the offer.  :hysterical:

The Lerners are just bluffing to try and convince Harper that they can move on without him.

The idea behind extending him would be to lower his annual average, thus giving the team a little more space to work under the luxury tax threshold.

I understand that part but the Nats need to move on from juice boy as soon as possible. Keeping him around for 3 more years is freaking dumb.

#Nats owner Mark Lerner speaks with a sense of finality about Bryce Harper. Of their offer to him, Lerner tells @1067theFan, "We told them, 'This is the best we can do.'"

Nationals owner Mark Lerner said in an interview on 106.7 FM The Fan on Friday of Bryce Harper that "I really don't expect him to come back at this point."

Lerner said that when the team made Harper the reported 10-year, $300 million offer on the last day of the regular season, "we told them, 'This is the best we can do.'" He added that that offer "very well may be" off the table at this point after the additions they've made since then and ones they still plan to make. General manager Mike Rizzo indicated earlier Friday that the Patrick Corbin signing didn't necessarily rule the club out for re-signing Harper, but the writing is on the wall at this point.

He is gone.

Bryce is going to go to the Dodgers and then tell everyone this has always been his dream growing up as a Cowboys/OSU/Lakers/Yankees/Golden State Warriors (2015-present)/Houston Astros/Vegas Golden Knights/Alabama fan
