January 24, 20197 yr Just now, bschmaranz said: You telling me you dropped out before Dickey Simpkins sprang to superstardom!? Hawk called me once and after we chatted my rep got on the phone and said "hawk had to go" I interrupted her with a "He gone" and she was laughing so hard and I heard Hawk say it in the background.

January 24, 20197 yr 3 minutes ago, BigHurt3515 said: If Machado has agreed to sign here there is no way that wouldn't have been leaked at this point. Ya I could buy somehow this secret being kept for a day or so from the big-time journalists (kinda like the Q trade), but now for any longer than that.
January 24, 20197 yr Looks like the televised segment is Friday @ 6pm. So we should know shortly after that if its happening.
January 24, 20197 yr Does anyone else feel like " lots of surprises coming our way" is going to be included in the answer to every single question at Soxfest?

Clearly the 175 million is actually bonus money for not telling anyone he's already agreed.

January 24, 20197 yr 22 minutes ago, fathom said: knowing how this offseason has gone, Manny will be at soxfest but only to hang out with Yonder and not sign anything. and wearing a phillies hat.
January 24, 20197 yr What we conceivably know: All insiders state Sox in good place Top media confirms Sox have an offer on table No media can confirm if any other teams have extended offer Top desired destination threats (Yanks, Dodgers) seemingly moving in different directions Friends, Family and cryptic social media, soxfest and season ticket calls It’s clear: we have locked up both Manny and Bryce The general public will know who the White Sox are now, my friends!!

January 24, 20197 yr It will have to leak at some point unless the Sox are going full WWE Royal Rumble surprise entrant mode and flying him into a different airport and driving him in. Someone would have to recognize him at O'Hare or Midway, right?
January 24, 20197 yr 4 minutes ago, Mooseman said: Dude Alonso is making some bold statements to ST holders. What statments?
January 24, 20197 yr Yonder seems like a cool dude. I followed him in instagram and he followed me back. Its confirmed, im signing with the White Sox
January 24, 20197 yr 9 minutes ago, Jose Abreu said: I wonder what surprises he would actually be aware of that weren't Machado related To be fair, he was referring to the season. To paraphrase, he basically said..."we'll have a surprising season. Lots of surprise. Lots of surprises.".

January 24, 20197 yr If they do somehow announce Manny and Bryce NWO style, my heart may explode....and I will surely jizz my pants. Edited January 24, 20197 yr by EloyJenkins
