KiwiSox Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Right now I'd be surprised if this happened before spring training starts and would put even odds on it dragging into the regular season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it is the best choice of words, in that sentence. I guess "foiled" would be just as good. Sports writers would probably say "derail," or "block". Aren't words wonderful? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, it doesn't seem like he has a good offer in hand. White Sox being cheap, but perhaps correctly based on the market. Will see if their shrewdness pays off with a lower-than-expected contract to Manny, or if it bites them in the ass and ruins this franchise. That seems like a terrible oversimplification. There is at least a fair chance this is a complex deal with opportunities for multiple opt outs. Neither side just wants to give into the other side, each wants the best for them. It isn't just saying here take this 10/400 deal. That would be ridiculous and a waste of limited resources. Each has a responsibility to make sure they are doing the best for their stakeholders, as well as getting a deal that works for the other side.

I honestly think he has a good offer but it’s not a record breaking offer. It was rumored that Lozano wanted to beat Stanton’s offer and they might be sticking it out just in case someone gives it to him. They already know that the Sox will do anything to get Manny with the way they went ahead and trade for Yonder and signed John Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshPR Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 If the mystery team had the high bid why didn't Manny take it? Not preferred landing spot... Hmmm I wouldn't doubt the Padres. And if that's the case then Manny highly considering the sox. So Hahn best pony up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise you could just sign him now and it just costs money. I really think They're saving their money for next offseason. They will be spending on one of the big pitchers. They are going to need a pitcher and it will cost quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxwinner Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Heyman definitely thinks that manny's dad was referring to a team other than the white sox. I really don't think so...and the fact that Lazano is still telling people there's a mystery team doesn't give me optimism about this ending anytime soon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 While Heyman’s tweet is likely a Lozano plant, this is the reason you don’t dick around for too long. No reason to let anyone else into this thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
