October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:32 PM) Has something been announced? No and Hahn has released a statement saying he won't comment on rumors.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:31 PM) Knobler is a guy to keep an eye on, he is always on point and doesn't report until its definite FWIW. This would suck so bad the last time I got this excited only to be sick to my stomach disappointed was when everyone was saying we were going to land Miggy only to lose him to DET, we know how that worked out. I rather have Hahn overpay not to see this guy be a superstar for Texas the next 5-8 years. Please Hahn pleas!!! I sure got the impression that his source was Sullivan.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:32 PM) The time stamp says 4:51 pm. Even central time that's well before Rosenthals latest stuff. Yeah, but when updating a blog post it doesn't update the time.

From that article: Some people involved believed Thursday that the White Sox were front-runners, but MLB.com reported Thursday night that the Rangers have strong interest, and a source confirmed their involvement.

I really would be giddyif he's the start of the "rebuild".
October 18, 201312 yr Honestly what it sounds like is someone is trying to stir something up just for the heck of it

October 18, 201312 yr According to sources, Abreu is determined to play with the player who hustles the most. Thus, he'll be signing with the Rangers in order to play with his hero, Alex Rios.

I think it was the Rangers then as well who made an offer higher than the Sox after he basically agreed to the Sox offer. He did the honorable thing and stuck to his word. Maybe this is similar.

That's what I hate about team beat writers. Some are great and some are completely full of s*** and there's so many its hard to get a good grasp on who to believe

Right and thats possible. What it seems like the bidding did was everyone put their bids in a pool. The top guys then start to bid against each other.
