Did anyone actually say it was happening today?

Let’s try this again. A Twitter source from another thread or earlier in this thread, had a timeline for a decision. Based on what was written, a decision was supposed to be made by 1/9. Whether or not we want to believe that is up to us.

A solid Yankees insider, https://twitter.com/SimonettiSource, is doing a Q&A this morning.  He seems pretty damn confident the Yankees are getting Manny.  Quite a few tweets to read, but here are a few:

 

For all of our sanity, I hope it ends today.

Yes, according to those with information. It’s time for the sources to put up or shut up and then it’s time to have a Friday press conference with the team’s acquisitions.

Actually Jimmy said by the end of the weekend IIRC

He also said that was just a feeling.

He said he didnt actually anything. Just his own speculation.

He’s being saying this kind of stuff for weeks now. Who even is this guy besides a video blogger?

Honestly this and the other tweet you posted sound just as much wishful thinking on the Yankees side as Jimmy's tweets yesterday for the Sox side.

Yup, Simonetti has said it’s in the bag for weeks now, which doesn’t explain why it hasn’t happened.  I don’t buy what he has to sell.

He has already come out and said he doesn’t have any info just a feeling.

It wasn’t a Soxtalk source, it was another  external source on Twitter.

Simonetti?  He came out and “confirmed” the Dan Clark report a few weeks ago.  He’s somewhat changed his position, so maybe he finally fessed up he jumped the gun?

He's said before he has a ton of info he can't share now but will reveal after any decision is announced

No I’m talking about jimmy, didn’t he say last night it was just a feeling he had? Like no new info just a feeling

Yes, Jimmy said that, but he also made it clear he’s been talking to people with sources.  I think there is some real smoke behind what he said.

Yeah.

And that people he knows who do have inside sources are very confident - could just be Bucket, WSD, Rabbit, etc., - or maybe he has heard more.

I don't have any sources. People that do are confident however. Hoping for resolution by this weekend is merely wishful thinking on my part. I think the Sox are in really good shape due to a softer than anticipated market. Pay attention to raBBit and the resident board insider here that keeps dropping good clues. Like the rest of you, I'm anxiously awaiting word. I feel pretty good though. 

This guys....

We had Bucket,Rabbit and Jimmy say things are real good between Sox and Machado but we should believe this Simonetti dude who hasn't really proven to be tuned into the Yanks/Machado stuff?

Not saying the guy doesn't have a Yanks source but off those tweets Fathom posted it seemed like it was his opinion based on wishful thinking and that supposed ESPN guy making the Machado claim that I've yet to actually see or hear.

Edited by TheTruth05

I think we start getting some real smoke once this thread hits the 100 page mark.

Simoneti seemed to back Dan Clark. A few days ago I wrote him this and he seemed to back track a bit. I think he is just wishing like everyone else.

 

Yeah I don’t believe Dan Clark is doing anything but trolling on twitter, how long do you have to go till we can say his “early” January prediction was wrong. This simonetti guy idk what to believe so I’m going to stick with believing our folks for now and see what happens
