Boras is just running out the clock. The longer it goes, the less time the Phillies have to make a trade. That may make them more desperate to keep him and force them to raise their offer.
Look Its Placido Polanco
Just about every bit of that is false, right down to Hamels not being represented by Boras.

Gentlemen, you are all correct. I meant to type Boggs but was reading Heyman, who often is an outlet for Boras. Max, I still think the rest of it is correct. It’s the agent’s job to maximize the return for his client, and time does not work in the Phillie’s favor. If this doesn’t work, they need to make the best trade, and that takes time.
Look Its Placido Polanco
Negotiations are coming to a head, the Phillies will set some sort of deadline and proceed from there. There’s a reason they came with their last best offer in the last few days – to give themselves time to make a trade if they need to. They’ve got plenty of time.

Phillies should trade him, the way it’s looking that division is for the Nats to lose for the next 3 or 4 seasons.

There’s also two Wild Cards and he’d be signed for 6 years.
I’d agree with that assessment though. Nats/Braves for the next 2-3 years.

Nats yes, Braves…maybe. Until their players prove durable they’re not a lock to win anything

Hamels wants that CC money. Unless Boston and LAD get into a bidding war for him, I don’t see it happening.
