If this is true, I just gained a lol respect for Hahn meaning he stood up to Jerry. So if true points to hahn

Cautiously Optimistic 

We will know for sure shortly. One of the main insiders will have it if it's true.

I have zero respect for Hahn, even if it’s true (and Espada was my 1st choice). Hahn should still be fired.

If this is true and the Sox make some moves I will be going to the April series in pittsburgh

That's fine. And you most likely are right. But it being espada if true he must of did something. So I can give him a lilttle respect

Bochy to TEX

Great, glad to hear he’s off the board, assuming the Sox get someone who isn’t tied to the organization. Now people can stop focusing on Bochy and instead focus on Espada.

Well, I live in Texas and have since 1994. This post is nonsense, I don't think we even ran the heater last winter.

You can make the argument for Florida, but there are very few better places to live than Texas if were talking about weather and cost of living.

In December when you're shoveling snow in 20 degree weather I will be outside in shorts and a t-shirt in mid 60's and sunny.

Some of us don’t mind having seasons in the Midwest and don’t like summers that are scorching. The cost of living argument is all too easy and those of us who live in Illinois know it all too well, but some of us aren’t among the crowd that bitches about it and then feel free on their way out of the state.

So it turns out people have different preferences when it comes to choosing a home state.  Got it.  Can we not do the whole proxy culture war that is the Illinois vs. Texas/Florida debate?  Boring.

I personally welcome the debate since people love to crap on Chicago and Illinois.

Now if true Duncan, Menechino, mcEwing, Boston and the rest need to go

I remember when Mike Rodriguez said we got Frankie Montas. Then it didn't happen lol. 

I just heard in the ladies room that we signed Tito. Piss a little, piss a lot.

I don't know why anyone would want to get rid of Katz. He made Giolito a guy where a 5.00 ERA is a disaster.  He made Rodon and Cease Cy Yoing types. He made Lopez useful. If a pitcher has talent, there's a decent chance this guy has as good of shot as any to get it out of them.

OK let's settle down, here.

Heyman should be able to get something from the Marlins. If he’s out of the running there, then it’s probably a good sign.

Eloy vs. Wall hasn’t refuted it yet. Maybe he heard something that he can’t say yet or was told not to say anything. It may take a while like until after the WS to get to the mainstream media. Another good sign is if we don’t announce a hire right now and things are just dragging until after the WS is over.

I’d be fine with Katz staying. It’s all the other disasters I want to see kicked to the curb.

 

Maybe I was wrong about the move to St. Pete but I was right about everything else.

I'd be very surprised if more than 1 coaching staff member not named Ethan Katz returns.  I could see Cairo staying maybe.  

If the Sox are hiring an external manager, there is going to be a new coaching staff.  

Espada hiring Beltran as his bench coach would be *chefs kiss*.

I'll personally pack our current 3B coach his F$#@ing lunch....but be a little sad that I might have to retire that phrase.

Please be true about Espada. But also:
