Leonard Zelig

I could be wrong, but I don't think the winter meetings are meant to entertain people.

Nice. So this thread is the same as the last one.

Can somebody summarize this thread for me in haiku form?

Pardon my ignorance. Is Thor a nickname or a joke?

I think the Sox traded for Jim Thome a day or two before Thanksgiving in 2005.

Then find the original thread and let people see what he actually said instead.

Yeah, I don't know what is accurate, or which thread, but someone posted a report that he is there or will be there this weekend.

Bulls have a home game Saturday, that's more likely, I think.

Yes, but I feel like usually the top tier guys are signed first which kind of sets the market for the lower tier guys. So I don't know whether to believe 2 teams that are supposed big players in Harper and/or Machado are making offers to other guys before they are signed.

Is Cleveland.com a legit news source? Phillies are listed too and it seems like they have their eyes on bigger fish.

Right, but for some reason the date when it is safe to promote a player can vary, so I wasn't sure what the actual rule is.

So is it the actual date or the number of games played that determines the service clock?

1 year @ 27 >>> 3 weeks @ 21 (or whatever the actual numbers are)

My neighbor is out putting his Christmas lights and decorations up. I think they were still up on Groundhog Day last year.
