January 14, 20197 yr This thread is so bi-polar. I love it. It's given me weeks of entertainment. What will I do with my time when the Manny saga has reached it's stunning conclusion?

January 14, 20197 yr The "heavily leaning" part is encouraging, but that tweet doesn't really say anything we didn't already know.

January 14, 20197 yr what if its a 7 year contract with a 1yr player option? either way 250/8 would be a steal

"Rival MLB executive" info sounds good though. meh. have some courage in your convictions and source(s). if he really has inside info like that then say like "based on that it appears Chicago is the heavy favorite and another team will have to pull a last minute upset..." "it may or may not happen" is chickenshit.

Thank god it’s been a slow last few weeks for me.

January 14, 20197 yr that tweet is still good.. just because he is trying to cover his ass in the second part doesn't take away from the first part. "Heavily leaning towards the white sox" is very encouraging

"it may or may not happen" is chickenshit. he's used the term "rival executive" before. When he said the Dodgers were at the 20 yard line with Harper, their fans laughed it off as he's not very connected.

January 14, 20197 yr There has been so much smoke around the White Sox and Machado over the last 24 hours, you would think that if the Phillies or a mystery team had any inclination to top the Sox offer that they would be doing it very soon. Otherwise, it does seem like this is the end game.
January 14, 20197 yr Duarte playing both sides of the scoop & Heyman confirming bad (for us) Sox reports. This day has gone much different than I thought it would.
January 14, 20197 yr 3 minutes ago, Jose Abreu said: Petition for the new thread ending to be "May or may not be heavily leaning" He said in the present tense that he's heavily leaning towards us and that's the most I care about than the rest of the tweet

If the Sox get Manny, people are going to be dreaming of something very amazing, but not very likely.
