Things have "heated" up since that tweet came out That's about the equivalent of Ricketts threatening to take the Cubs to Rosemont. The Sox aren't going to win in 2019. Unfortunately, they have all the time in the world for this to play out. Others not so much. Edited January 9, 2019 by Dick Allen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in 2011 I argued feverishly on various message boards that Machado was overrated as a prospect and Grant Green was going to be the better future ballplayer. Obviously Manny saw this and is reluctant to sign with the Sox because of this. Mea culpa. What the fuck man this is terrible you should be ashamed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said to someone that he's trying to prove a point and I would imagine he's trying to see who shares this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
