I would think Rendon is a pretty cynical take the money guy. It's been said he doesn't really care about baseball, he just happens to be really really good at it.

Headline/Photo was likely an editor FWIW

Have you seen the state of like...all news media. It works.

The implication Hahn said it with the headline/photo combo is honestly gross.

Nah, it makes sense to not put himself in a situation with a built in replacement.

I know, sentiment remains though. Would love discuss how Rick Porcello signing with the Twins will torpedo the offseason or something.

I just really wish somebody would do something

That's what he wants you to think

Lyles would be a guy on a short leash with the Sox with Rodon and Kopech coming back from injury. Not surprising he wouldn't be all that interested.

Everyone in the replies of anyone who mentions White Sox on twitter

Purely as a hypothetical, at what price point might Cole consider a one year deal? 150?

Speaking of WAR room, where do they all go to plan? Just sitting on a couple of queen beds in a hotel room? There can’t be 30 meeting rooms in whatever hotel they’re in. Edit: yes I just instinctively capitalized war. I need a life.

When was the last time you saw a decimal in contract terms. Over detailing is the easiest way to spot a fraud other than than they 99% hit rate of ‘That guy is full of it’ being correct.

He is capital B Bad though.

I hate Kap's face so much

Seems no one bought Hahn's dog and pony show. You probably shouldn't either.

Two things 1. Passan couldn’t possibly know what he said his reasoning is. 2. Someone get this dude a Xanax

Sox should send Zavala, Mercedes, and Collins to Pittsburgh and let them figure out which one doesn't blow.

Grandal is wearing #24 for anyone interested. Not sure why they would shop an 8 onto him in all the post-signing stuff.

I'm no scout, but it did feel like something was unlocked when he went to the Cubs

The FO additions they've made this off-season would lend creedence to that. I always got the idea the Theo has been stuck on Moneyball, but with money, for too long.

I'm not putting much, if any, stock in what a TV anchor thinks.

It frustrates people so much to the point where they think it's a negative trait. It's not.

Lots of freaking out of not making a move at the meetings, even though the only move that's been made is a retention that was always going to happen.
