Boras...he's trying to save his reputation. 

The Nats offered $300MM/10 year deal and he rejected it...the Nats pulled it back, and now he can't best that.  He's overplayed his hand and is running around like a cat on a marble floor looking for a place to crap.

Well worded.

But I think the offer is still there if he wants it

When/if he comes back to Nats' Park, I hope the Lerners tell him that deal is long gone.

I can’t wait for Harper to come back to the Nats so all you haterz can eat a dick.   :stir:


Edit: I still think it’s the Dodgers even though the poll doesn’t include them....

I don't think anybody "hates" him or Boras.    Just too old a cat to be freaked by a kitten.    My reaction to him on the field will be the same whether he stays or goes   ....   silence.

I realize it’s a 64 page thread, but you don’t have to look too far back to find the haterz.   ;)

The Bryce haters are so weird to me. Especially now that the Nats might be able to get him at a reasonable price, comparative to what many thought he would get.

This thread is getting more entertaining by the minute. 

Saving face is what this situation is all about.  I afraid that 10/$300mm is still on the table, and Harper is going to take it.  No shame there.

The Phillies can get Machado for much less.  And they deserve each other.

Wonder who advised the Lerners to put that 10 yrs/$300M offer on the table at season's end? Whoever it was should have some explaining to do if the current "low ball" rumors for Machado and Harper are true.

Harper will get his money. People fantasize about Boras getting his comeuppance are exhibiting wishful thinking. If Hosmer got what he did last summer, Bryce is getting paid. It takes only one sucker.

Are you up for a wager...to benefit charity, of course?

I'm willing to bet that Harper doesn't get better than a $300 MM/10 Year deal...

Just to be clear...he has to sign for more than $300MM and for 10 years or more...

For my money, I hope the Phillies get both Bryce and Machado...

Filthy city.  They deserve both of them.

If you were bettin' a beer, I'd take the opposite stance just for the possibility of gettin' a free beer.

And I sure hope that sucker isn't the Nats.

Let’s make it Two beers. And just a total value of $300 million. If he signs for less years that’s a win for him.

 :thumbs:  Deal...

Though if it's $300MM over 11 or 12 years it's a loss...I'm still game with your offer...even if it's not more than but at least $300MM.

mitlen...you get the same deal...  ;)

The rest of y'all are crap outta luck...
