N&N: Where does Bryce Harper end up?

Here’s to a great Christmas Eve!

The drama includes the Tribe!! From mlb.com:

While Bryce Harper to the Dodgers is a rumor that’s been gaining steam after Los Angeles traded outfielders Yasiel Puig and Matt Kemp to the Reds on Friday, there are several factors that could keep the club out of the Harper sweepstakes.

The first is the luxury tax. If the Dodgers want to stay under the $206 million threshold, which they reportedly do, they won’t have the payroll space for Harper -- especially if the club is looking to stick to a shorter-term deal with a higher average annual value, as has been suggested.
