MLB.com: Bryce Harper, the top free agent on the market, very well may command the most lucrative contract in baseball history. In point of fact, MLB Trade Rumors predicts a whopping 14-year, $420 million contract for the outfielder. Could his childhood favorite team stand in the way of a record-breaking contract? Jeff Joyce, a host on MLB Network Radio, wonders what it would look like if Harper took less money to play in the Bronx. I wouldn’t count on it, but it’s sure fun to dream.
New York Post | George A. King III: If the Yankees can’t reel in Manny Machado, all evidence points them to pursuing Freddy Galvis. Unfortunately, the Bombers may have competition for the glove-first shortstop. King reports that the Pirates have strong interest in the 29-year-old. The solution to this is clear: Sign Machado and let Galvis play for Pittsburgh.

Sterling will reprise his role as Nets announcer this afternoon when Brooklyn hosts the Atlanta Hawks. It should be a good time!
