Jose Abreu

It's an MLBTradeRumors commenter account but I think he was joking anyway.

Haven't been able to catch up on this thread but I will say that Hahn was not at the STH event, and he was there last year

Yes

He’s there tomorrow from 3-7

Might as well lock up the thread and go home now.

I wonder what surprises he would actually be aware of that weren't Machado related

I disagree, I think this means that a Joc trade has been agreed to already

I'll link to it without embedding so as to not scare anyone. ***this is fake*** https://twitter.com/jmrobertson143/status/1088260669504438278

There are a few tonight but I'm gonna refrain from posting them since they're from accounts with 0 followers

And some people aren't miserable unless they're happy.

A few of those signings and the Charlotte Knights bullpen would be 2nd or 3rd best if it were in the AL Central

They'll sign a starting pitcher. Rick Hahn himself practically guaranteed it. If I had to guess, one of Wade Miley or Gio Gonzalez. There are still plenty of cheap #5 types available

Absolutely not the case

Only would make sense in the scenario in the post I quoted where the price on Joc gets much higher. I would rather have Joc but not if he ends up costing more than the relative value of that 2nd round pick

At some point, if our goal is to shore up CF until Robert is ready, it would just make more sense to sign Pollock for 2 years

My conspiracy is that Steverson told Anderson to change something and Anderson didn't like it. It would explain why Anderson liked (and then unliked) tweets in September that were trashing the hitting coaches

So we're still pretending that the Sox are gonna sign Manny to play shortstop?

It's a minor league deal, and he was a beast in AAA last year. Guessing he's more of an insurance policy

He liked a tweet that implied it was Machado/Harper related
