fathom Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 So if the Sox do miss out on Manny or Harper, this has all been a sick joke that trolls the fan base? If you see Jon Jay or Adam Jones signed this weekend, all hands on deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 This is the day I will look back on and say either “this is when I knew Hahn was the guy for the job” or “this is the day I knew the front office was going to lose the rebuild”.

caulfield12 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Aren’t all indications Jimenez would be in LF? They really are going back to Palka in RF? There better be a solid indication they can bring in Machado or all these chess moves will look pointless. The Indians clearing salary of Encarnacion and Alonso means Santana and a bunch of hitters will come over from LAD for Kluber and free up RF for Harper. We actually helped improve the Indians’ payroll glut...which really clears up next year when they can dump Kipnis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Palka was a better hitter than Alonso last year. And he cost a bit less than $8 million. As I said, Hahn doesn't do salary dumps. It's a cynical move. Edited December 15, 2018 by GreenSox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I know I keep bringing up college recruiting metaphor, but it feels like we just hired the 5 star players AAU coach to be an assistant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Just my opinion obviously but I’m going to say if you think José is getting dealt then you’re absolutely wrong. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Why are we helping the Indians? This is just idiotic. Call, that part is completely besides the point, although he’ll probably morph into their Jason Tyner. Why would Machado care about a teammate who would only be around one season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Does anyone else get the vibe that they won't offer the most money and are trying to persuade in other ways? This kind of stuff just doesn't seem to matter if you won't outbid the next best team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
