[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1449619, member: 26283"] I don’t think this guy actually has sources. He throws stuff at the wall and sees what sticks. I’ve yet to see any of his predictions come true. That said, Harper’s still not signed. He’s not going to get what he wanted at the start of the offseason. I think Harper and teams that had previously been eliminated are circling back around to one another. And it’s always been the case that Harper would be signing a de facto three year contract. No matter where he signs, for how long, or for how much, there will be a player option after three or four years. That’s just the way top-level baseball contracts work these days. See Jason Heyward’s and Yu Darvish’s contracts as examples. [/QUOTE]
