October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:40 PM) 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 Then you have the Sox beat writers who just collect a check.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:44 PM) Jon Heyman seconds that Texas is in. Heyman just going off Knobler and Texas beat write..
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 01:44 AM) Jon Heyman seconds that Texas is in. To be fair, he's just quoting Knobler and the Rangers blogger
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Marty34 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:45 PM) Then you have the Sox beat writers who just collect a check. Or they just become Cubs beat writers instead. #MarkGonzalez
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:44 PM) Jon Heyman seconds that Texas is in. He just said what knobler and Sullivan say Texas in. He didn't say he had independent info.
October 18, 201312 yr Worst thing about this is that we likely won't have any solid confirmation until after the World Series.
October 18, 201312 yr The last sentence of this thing still scares me, though. http://trsullivan.mlblogs.com/2013/10/17/r...ot-after-abreu/

October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 02:50 AM) If the Rangers get him, I blame the nickname thread I blame Ozzie not being our manager anymore
October 18, 201312 yr Wonder if there is any bad blood between the Sox and Rangers from the Rios negotiations, then the Sox starting Axelrod versus Indians the last week when they were locked in a playoff race . . .
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:51 PM) I blame Ozzie not being our manager anymore I blame the Dodgers' disrespect of the baseball gods.

If there was, would that have any relevance to what's going on right now?
October 18, 201312 yr Funniest tweet yet that was just deleted for who knows what: White Sox and Rangers agree to split Abreu's services 81 games/81 games and split his 4 year, $44 MM contract. He is still on pace to drive in 247 runs for each team.
October 18, 201312 yr Local news guy here in Ranger's country is speculating that the Rangers have him all but wrapped up, didn't even mention the Sox What do they say in Kansas
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 06:48 PM) Worst thing about this is that we likely won't have any solid confirmation until after the World Series. Why is that?
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:52 PM) I blame the Dodgers' disrespect of the baseball gods. I blame the Braves for thinking they are the baseball gods.
October 18, 201312 yr I think we can all see how this will end up. It's the Sox post 2006. Rangers will add to their insane offense.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:55 PM) Can anyone give any extensive details about how the negotiations work? As far as the sealed bid process, etc. It's like any free agent. The sealed bids is just some stunt his agents pulled to find out how much teams are willing to pay
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:55 PM) Why is that? Because of Alex Rodriguez. YOU CANT UPSTAGE THE GLORIOUS WORLD SERIES.
October 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 08:55 PM) Can anyone give any extensive details about how the negotiations work? As far as the sealed bid process, etc. He's an unrestricted free agent -- if there are rules like 'sealed bids,' JDA and his agent are making them up themselves. Could be anything.
