Sockin

Do you blame him? He's been an elite player for 6 years and earned the right to be a FA. For a team to say "oh hey yeah you've been elite but you need to be elite for another 6 years before we pay you what you think you're worth in 2019."

Good way to alienate a 26 year old superstar is to tell him "yeah you've been good for 6 years but if you continue to be good for another 6 years THEN you'll get your money."

Manny kept telling the media and teams all it would take is 300 mil to get him. The Sox tried to call his bluff and they look like morons. Reinsdorf is so fucking scared of "setting the market."

Manny wanted the glamour of having the highest contract in baseball history which he will have for about 3 days.

You better talk to your boss, Rick.

People are pissed because they traded for this guy's best friend and BIL, claimed they have no financial restrictions then he signs and your fucking VP comes out and says "we just couldn't go to 300 mil." Until they sign someone like this no one is going to believe a damn thing they ever say. "Our culture is changing." Prove it.

The only counter move they're going to pull is saying they've hired AJ Pierzynski as a coach. 2005 YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because they probably thought Lozano was bluffing when he came and said the Padres were coming in hot.

I hope the Cubs sign Harper now, I really do.

They are absurd statements to make. "We have to be able to sign the younger guys later." The younger guys who you have no fucking clue if they're actually going to be anything 6 FUCKING YEARS FROM NOW?!

I honestly wish I could cancel my season tickets at this point. This is 100% my last year supporting this organization. Crying fucking poor when you have no fucking payroll. Fuck this organization and fuck Jerry Reinsdorf.

OH MY FUCKING GOD

HAHAHA FUCK YOU KENNY. They didn’t even have the balls to have Rick out there.

Hahn is not going to show his face today.

This also goes to show why sometimes, especially when you’re the fucking White Sox, you have to bid against yourself. This shit should have been wrapped up in January with him signing here.

Reinsdorf is not going to shell out even MORE money for Bryce. They wouldn’t fucking match 30 million. ABSURD.

Reinsdorf really doesn’t believe a player is worth over 30 million. FUCK YOU JERRY.

30 million a year. They wouldn’t beat 30 million a year.

Guess Moncada really is moving to third.

FUCK

Welcome to yesterday circa 2 PM.

He’s making fun of the people overreacting to this.

All in means they're willing to do whatever it takes to get Manny.
