I don't know if it's actually him, but the account in question proudly states that it's a member of the Incarcerated Bob Network, has various links to his sites, etc.

This is one of Incarcerated Bob's accounts. Nothing to see here.

Moncada was one of the best players in baseball in April

Which is good. You want to have a low or high spin rate while you don't want to have an average spin rate.

I actually think it could be him

It ended better than it started, but I still can't wait for the day that these baseball writers stop using errors and fielding percentage so often. At least he didn't use batting average.

You know you slipped up when your overly-negative clickbait article gets roasted by Mr. Negative himself

It's actually funny how every single sentence here is false

There are a few videos out on Twitter but from people who were there, I heard he came off as pretty confident

That would sound a lot more like admitting defeat than anything he actually said

I do agree, but with the way the media and even the team's own fans treated their chances at landing a whale back before November, I would probably be tempted to boast like that if I were him as well

I'm getting the same impression, although not surprised by the negativity

From Rosenthal ^

I highly doubt that GMs get their intel on contract negotiations from Bruce Levine

Government gets re-opened on day 1 of Soxfest? Coincidence? Or is this Reinsdorf and Hahn giving us another hint?

The Rosenthal tweet was well before the WSD/Bilek tidbits though

They also won more championships in October of 2005 than non-October months of 2005.

too soon

Tonight was the corporate partnership party at the stadium (which Hahn was at, according to Chili). The scoreboard was lit up for it according to Luis Robert's Instagram story.

Obviously am not a big believer in J. Michael Robertson's sources but it would make sense to trade Laz Rivera
