You mean we can’t believe a bucket of chicken?

How insightful.

It’s just ironic that a bot linked your username to the White Sox.

I think they’ve been talking to Conforto for ages and have already made progress. My hunch is that Conforto likes it here better than anywhere… good fit for him here too. I’ll be a sad panda if it doesn’t happen.

Ding ding ding. And it’s going to be a long wait to see it through.

Good. ?

I hope you are slightly surprised.

I’m hoping we end up with the Cuban left handed Nick Madrigal, eventually. ?

I’m confident this will be what occurs and no, you didn’t miss anything. Get ready for a long boring period of baseball and Soxtalk history.

A lot of truth here brother - mainly in the last part of your message. I did get your initial post and the nuances but still have no clue why you posted it here ?

I’ve been browsing Twitter less than 24 hours… my quality of life is already worse but I can whole heartedly say that these two Tweets are the best related to the Sox that will occur all year:

So would anyone with half a brain… oops Mr. Hahn, Mr. Williams, Mr. LaRussa, and Mr. Whoever Else Advisor Man. Unless you’re a Cubs exec or Harold or another Soxtalk Madrigal detractor… then it’s understandably a hard no.

Considering the physical window requirements, I would suspect today to be less active… though I don’t really know how long it takes to finalize a contract, get a physical, and submit all the paperwork to NY. I’m sure that all can be done in relative short order. Let’s say the deadline is 7pm.

If you’re getting the 2021 L. Garcia - it’s a good deal. I hope we see that level of relative production from him with less time on the field due to better health and a true right fielder.

It takes quite a bit to make me say this but… what the fuck?

It won’t. Maybe Leury is line fine wine.

Dominican homie was pretty much dead on.

I’ve met my match and believe you have earned the Obsession Crown.

Isn’t it funny that we’ve seen his range be from 1 year to 5 years and from 20 million for the contract to 100 million. Bottom line is that no one has a good pulse on him but I still think we end up with one of him, Castellanos, or Schwarber. Conforto + 2B trade + SP trade or a depth signing is what I keep circling back to.

Fixed - I resent that you omitted me.

Yes

I need to get off the Internet and put myself back to work… my level of Soxtalk obsession lately has been unhealthy due to the compressed activity and my own propensity to, well… be habituated to this team and endless speculation. ?

Circumstances put aside… this is pretty fun actually. Like other professional sports free agency.

Here’s one that isn’t paywalled https://fansided.com/2021/11/30/mlb-rob-manfred-2-different-baseballs-report/amp/ Will be juicey to read the athletic article once it comes out

Well this is about to really become a shit show ?
