I don't believe he ever said anything about this coming Wednesday. Four days ago (Tuesday), he tweeted that the White Sox used to always make their big moves on Wednesdays. I don't think he had any inside information that something would happen with Manny/Harper on Wednesday.

Or are you referring to something else he said?

Rabbit has never actually put a timeline on it. Like you said, he said things usually happen on Wednesday but at no point did he ever say "the White Sox will sign Manny Machado on Wednesday."

Can you get pitchforks into SoxFest or do you have to check them with your coat?

I've never had any issues bringing one. I haven't been in a long time though. Can someone else confirm this?

I really don't think rabbit would say Wednesday arbitrarily 

What are the odds he could possibly know ahead of time what will happen with Harper, when they could get Machado in for a physical...and signing press conference, it’s not the type of thing anyone but Reinsdorf, the front office and shareholders will know until the final hours if everything comes together quickly.

Page 200 on the way!  I predict we'll sign another over the hill outfielder by page 215.

For those debating what raBBit said, here is the tweet:

And Balta, he did not say the same thing about this past Wednesday.

He said would be surprised if they didn’t sign him by next Wednesday.

He doesn't know the exact day. That's why he put a timeline on it. Because he feels it's that close

Must have missed that yesterday then. I do think that Machado will sign somewhere next week. I think Harper will follow in the week or two after.

I’m not going to worry until the 2 whales sign with someone else. Until then, sit back relax and strap it down. 

Manny is waiting on us to reach 200 pages in this thread,so he should sign very soon now

Isn't that what Custer said?

Or the Theranos board meeting before the WSJ story hit...

Maybe NotHahn’s bad news is only in regards to Harper. 

I believe the longer the Manny hunt goes on, the worse it is for us.

I could see that being the case given how much he has hinted at us and Harper this week.

He also said the same thing a week ago and then wednesday passed with nothing.

seems like he might've mean this Wednesday

Could be. Wasn’t his initial info about Harper and nothing about Machado?

NotHahn, my man, I know it's snowing but it's been almost an hour since your post.  How far away do you live from this 1 yr old?

Hopefully nothing bad happened

I disagree.  We can wait as long as anyone.  The Phillies will have to look at other options to improve their roster.  Also, I think it’s far less likely a mystery team jumps in the fray last second with Machado than Harper.

Most people aren't driving faster than 35 mph right now so I wouldn't be surprised if he was stuck driving for awhile. Everyone chill, grab your drink of choice, and listen to some music, come back in a bit and he probably will have posted. Why so eager for "bad news" anyway?
