Sounds like ChiSox are bidding against themselves for him.

Basically, what I gather from this is the White Sox started negotiations at 7 years $175 million and will go up from there. I think Reinsdorf et al are willing to outbid anyone for Machado as they have no payroll.

Have to admit, was surprised he went to SD as all signs seemed to indicate he was going to be a ChiSox but they were not willing to go to the $300M mark which Manny was after. Although, FWIW, he left money on the table with Chicago as he had escalators and incentives that would've worked out to be more. And Cali has a higher tax right? Then again, whatever, at that amount of $$$$, who cares about taxes.
