December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (SoCalSox @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 08:56 PM) What is up with these Red Sox "writers" saying this is even remotely close to happening? They fell out of the Lester sweepstakes and needed clicks
December 9, 201411 yr QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Dec 8, 2014 -> 09:59 PM) There is so much wrong with that article. For example, it is dated tomorrow.
December 9, 201411 yr I love that the package for Hamels would have to be "ridiculous", but the package for the younger, better Sale was no sweat lulz. Betts, Swihart, Owens, & Marrero get you 5 minutes with Hahn maybe.

December 18, 201411 yr I exchanged a few messages with Dan Lifshatz (the Intern from Boston who started this whole mess) after he announced that the deal was dead. I asked him how far along he had heard things got and he said "they had agreed on a base of the deal". I followed up by asking what killed it and he said that "Chicago wants to fill seats this season, so they will try to compete. They don't have a lot of faith though." So you heard it here first, the only reason that Chris Sale isn't on the Red Sox right now is because RH, KW, & JR decided to try to compete even though they don't think they can.

This guy is such a tool. My favorite of his was when he repeatedly stated that the White Sox have no RH power despite the fact the Flowers, Ramirez, Abreu and Garcia should combine for 90-100 homers.
December 18, 201411 yr Bucket is a pretty good source of information so unless he comes on here and tells us that there was even the slightest negotiation with Boston over Sale, I'm not buying it.
December 18, 201411 yr I think the worst part is the even bigger meatball fans following his every word,lol, that's how stupid rumors get around. Edited December 18, 201411 yr by TheTruth05
December 18, 201411 yr well i went ahead and gave him a shoutout and tagged soxnet. All of you twitter fans should do the same

December 18, 201411 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 18, 2014 -> 11:53 AM) It's cause we're trading Abreu to them. Possibly with Sale. Makes sense so we can clear some salary.
December 18, 201411 yr It's a really good thing the Sox signed Zach Duke, Adam LaRoche, David Robertson, and Melky Cabrera and traded for Jeff Samardzija and Dan Jennings or Chris Sale would be a Red Sox.
December 18, 201411 yr I hope the base of this deal included 2000 Pedro or Nomar, or maybe 2007 Ortiz or Beckett.
December 18, 201411 yr He said trust me they need to fill the seats, and I told him that Hahn said that increase in ticket sales got Melky Cabrera and then he went on to insult me that I'm an assistant baseball coach while I'm still in college lol. What a bum.

What a bum. Well obviously an assistant baseball coach carries no where near the prestige of a radio intern. Everybody knows that. Who are you trying to fool?
