That being said, I wouldn't be shocked to wake up one morning and see that he's signed with the Nationals. I agree with you and I think they’re still in it.

The Angels do not have a $200M offer on the table - nor do the Nats... the Sox $185 (23M/yr) is the best offer Boras has... Henry helped him by confirming that the Sox won't go higher, but I don't think Boras is going to get a better deal when he starts calling around. In a few days, the $185 will still be sitting there as he best deal, and Teix will sign with Boston before the new year. "Mark" my words.
