If I heard correctly at the end of the Hahn podcast, someone mentioned Girardi and Rick had every chance to say Ricky is doing a great job and instead just ignored the comment.
So say the Sox sign Machado this offseason to play 3B, Madrigal hits .350 in the minors and Moncada has a 2 WAR season yet someone is offering you a controlled star like Yelich this past offseason for him? It's not that far-fetched.
