Jose Abreu

Didn't even realize he was a FA/not under team control for another year

Soxtalk: Palka is cool and all, but I’m tired of one dimensional guys with sub-.300 OBPs. White Sox: *acquire an outfielder whose bread and butter is OBP* Soxtalk: Daniel Palka is better!

I think it’s the other way around. I think this is a move that, if made, speaks to the FO’s confidence in executing on Machado

The kid who reported this originally thinks it gets done soon and said there’s a sense of urgency today that wasn’t there last night

I think this is the case and that’s why I don’t think anyone should have a problem with this trade if/when it happens.

It'll be a shame when Eloy's .290/.340/.520 season isn't enough for ROY (Vlad Jr.), but there's a good chance he's already our best hitter.

Poor Heyman, he followed TA over two months ago and has followed Delmonico for years. Not to mention he missed Yolmer, whom Machado followed a few days ago

He doesn’t have sources

When you refer to people saying it’s close, are you talking about the WSD tweets? Just wondering if I missed something

This is unequivocally the best thread title so far.

That deal (allegedly) had no opt-outs, so it wasn't a real offer

Plus the amount of people who believe them despite their track records

I wish he did a montage of all the times he has been completely wrong. It would be so long that Twitter would probably crash

FWIW, in the old site (as in pre-March 2018), this would be on page 667 or so by now since the new site makes it 25 posts per page

I believe his logo is his Instagram profile picture, which is some "MM" shaped thing

Machado definitely knows that people track who he follows (ex: YES Network debacle of New Year's Eve). He's probably trolling us again, honestly

He followed Anderson and Delmonico a long time ago, but Yolmer was this morning so that’s why I figured it was worth sharing

Machado just started following Yolmer Sanchez on Instagram 20 minutes ago

Manny could have literally signed with us during #HatGate and it wouldn't have mattered, we would still be interpreting that video.

What kind of hat?

Where is he gonna end up? Philly? Doesn't seem like he has many suitors.

Sounds like something someone with a #sauce would say.

Not sure if Soxtalk or lids.com edit: if this loosely inspired the "hattalk.com" title, then I expect a royalty
