So Kenny and Hahn can't even get their lies straight. One is shocked and didn't see it coming, the other got the call. One says 300 million is too much, the other says there are no restrictions.

So if they made this offer a month and a half ago before the Padres got involved Manny Machado is a White Sox.  Idiots

Hahn said he got a call from Machado’s representation (Lozano).

They had a chance to match but didn’t.

But these guys really want to win. 

Oh and apparently theres no set mark on how high theyre willing to go for a player. Unless it’s Machado or Harper

I’d still be infuriated but this is better than pissing on my head and telling me it’s raining

They're playing the Hahn presser on the Score right now.  Some yahoo asked a question about Dylan Cease, first question after his statement.

Was it Bruce Levine?

Remind you of GarPax?

that may be the case...but that is not what Hahn SAID. key difference. He may be lying, but I don't like posters changing the presser to make us all more upset. 

I don’t care what he said.  Do you really believe anyone in the Sox front office now?  What do agents do?  They get the biggest contract for their clients by pitting two or more teams against each other.  Man, don’t be so gullible.

They sound a lot like the 45 admin right now. Can't even get their lies straight.

Machado was a very important piece. Great offensively and defensively at 3rd base .Same age as a lot of guys we have on the roster we keep giving chances to but actually a vet with a lot of good years behind him. Not an injury prone guy . Plays just about every game every year. He fit everything the Sox could ve wanted in a market that they couldn't have hoped to be better.  I totally understand why this is so crushing to so many.

When all your prospects are getting injured and failing and the fan base is ready to abandon hope Machado represented a brighter future and a chance to renew faith in the organization.

Yep...perfect piece, at perfect time, with perfect circumstances, and FAILED Lol

Nah,

he said this apparently.

 

It is the last time anyone will take their chances of actually signing a premium free agent seriously. KW said they can't afford $30 million a year if they want to build a championship roster.

And that is why you should stop spouting your mouth off.

I think Hahn is in traditional spin mode, Kenny is just dumb enough to blurt out his incompetence to a reporter off-the-cuff

Absolutely. This is the smart answer, and may be actually correct. Id stomach this much more if we just said “ we don’t think he’s that good.”

 

The stupid answer is saying “well we tried really hard and I’m proud of us”

They didn't deserve to be the architects of this rebuild. They both should have been shitcanned in June 2016. They were the Bulls from 2013-16 before the Bulls were the Bulls. The Bulls have just caught up to the Sox in terms of their incompetence.

@GermanSoxFan I just need to be held bro/

Sorry guys, I'm going to be out a while trying tp process this. My team, the one I wholeheartedly pledge my allegiance to, planned for this offseason for 2 to 3 years? They didn't lose out to the Yankees, or the Phillies--but to the Padres?! That's just unacceptable. Oh and wait till we play them in interleague games. And see him and Tatis in that infield - won't that be a kick to the sack! Sadly, mlb fans everywhere today are saying it -" glad I'm not a sox fan. Hate to be them today".

I don't know what to say. 

The more and more I read Sox comments the more and more pissed off I am getting.. I need some beer. 

lmfao, Sox front office are the laughing stock of baseball

embarrassing 

Fucking Jon Jay and Alonso LOL

there is no doubt in my mind the Sox sign Machado in 2028 to a 2 year deal for like $25mm. This will all come full circle as a joke. Cant wait.

Soxtalk starting to crash.... for all the wrong reasons. 

Edited February 19, 20197 yr by SoxAce

So they offered a higher AAV...should have just matched the Padres offer.

Nice of you to cut out the rest of my comment...

You must also believe Hahn and Kenny when they try to say $250 million guaranteed plus incentives is worth more than $300 million guaranteed.  ?
