this tweet is meaningless without any context tbh.

He did tweet right after that a photo of a suite that they were supposed to be meeting in.....hmmm

His earlier tweets suggest Sox want to lock him up before leaving.

 

Personally, not buying it.

[John] knows all.

 

(He doesn’t know anything. He’s most likely a troll.)

I would assume they would like to but it won't happen

that would be unprofessional and honestly a disservice to himself by not getting all offers, I cant see the Sox even remotely believing this would happen

"Substantial" and "Market Rate" are 2 very different things.  If it comes out that they were knowingly cheap on their offer I'm done with this team till Reinsdorf sells

Let's hope JR surprises us all! Hopefully in his "old" age he wants to be remembered well by Sox fans.

I just saw a heart warming story about Charles Barkley befriending some dude he met at a bar and staying friends for decades. I mean who knows. Maybe he has connections.

I'm sure they want to. I could say that.

He's a troll. Disregard everything he says.

True, I've yet to see peavy44 confirm that he is a troll

Cmon man, it says he is a journalist with integrity right there on his twitter page.  That seems legit to me.

Done. Throw in Ed Farmer. 

Somehow I don't think Ed would report to the Yanks.

Just scroll down his twitter. They were supposed to announce a Harper signing last week at 1:30 or 2pm. He didn’t even delete it. Then said the Sox hoped to have Manny in on Thursday. Surprise, it’s Monday. Then said things would really get quiet for a bit, so naturally within hours McCann is signed, Alonso trade goes through, and Manny’s meeting is confirmed. 

Eventually he will be right about something, but he clearly is just throwing shit at a wall hoping something sticks, and people will believe he is what he isn’t.

Not sure why everyone is so quick to dismiss people that claim to have information. The Quintana deal was literally broken by two redditors named KatyPerrysBootyHole and WetButt23. 

This guy could ultimately end up being a troll, but it’s not always only the main national guys that have info.

Read his last week of tweets. I think you will jump on the dismissed bandwagon.

just because it happened once or twice doesn't make it likely.  most stories are broken by a few national guys with actual sources.

It does have the conference call with Alonso in it

Some advice to any fake insiders who want to make anyone think they have real info. Never say things will quiet down for a few days after the Winter Meetings. Especially if they were pretty slow. There are always a couple trades and signings in the 3 or 4 days that follow.
