So basically if Ozzie is retired or not?

I wouldn't take Hahn's comments too seriously. Of course he's going to downplay all of this. It's not like he's going to come out and say anything else.

overreacting on a message board to comments that mean nothing?!?!?! I am so shocked.

Just what we all wanted to hear right?!?

 

I've been firmly in the Hahn is playing this correctly, let's be patient camp all offseason.  Better to get him for $220-250M than $300M+. 

But at this point, fuck it - give the man his 10 years and $300 million, and let's move on with our fucking lives. 

FWIW, Hahn mentioned a few times already "a couple of weeks" with regards to the premium talent making their decisions.

I’m really starting to wonder if they have no clue what shitstorm from the fan base awaits them if they get outbid here.

Speaking of wrestling, you guys would all be marks. You're all getting worked by Hahn

 

Am I the only one  that think Hahn's comments aren't tempering expectations? I read it as the opposite. Maybe I am just delusional at this point.

If Padres get Manny, Tatis Jr will be available.

Padres won’t get Manny...but last minute smokescreen from Lozano means Sox will finalize soon.

and don’t dismiss Hahn’s first comment in regards to what number Manny will wear...”depends on what’s retired”

so surprise #1 is Ozzie Guillen #13 to be retired

surprise 2 (fingers crossed) is what number Manny chooses w 13 gone.

He's gonna go Heel to Babyface if Machado signs

There was always going to be a meltdown if they didn't get one of the two after the optimism they expressed at the Winter Meetings.  Considering they've since added Jay and Alonso and the Yankees went after someone else, it will be incredibly ugly.

Yep - six years and counting...

So, as expected, every question is a variation on "will you sign machado".

Soxfest gon' be gr8.

They are the cubs station

I don't take his comments to really mean anything.  He's not saying they've signed one of the guys, nor is he saying they've missed out.  To me, it sounds like they are comfortable with the offers and expect to be one of the finalists.

does that mean they shouldn't cover both teams?

They will cover what people want to listen too.  They are in the business of making money.  

Remember, the bucks stop at Jerry’s desk.
