I don't know if you actually can purchase or not. But individual games aren't on sale yet. I don't see where saving it for Soxfest is an advantage. Everyone there would still be high over it if it was announced yesterday, and their ticket office would have some action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they actually got him though I imagine they would fly him in tomorrow morning instead to keep it a secret. Expand I don’t think he will be in Chicago no matter what. If anything, it would be a signing announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooseman Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 If they really want to fire a shot after announcing all the known rostered players have the room go dark and a video start playing showing the Wrigley Field marque (fans go crazy booing) video pans to someone standing on the bricks and they spray paint the Sox logo all over them. Final shot is Machado spraying the camera lens black. Ok and maybe a shot of MAnny launching Ian Happ into a TV trailor like a lawn dart lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand There will be no announcement Friday night, and then people will talk themselves into Saturday being the day....and then same with Saturday to Sunday. Sunday will be like the last day of the Winter Meetings where everyone hopes stuff happens, but in reality it’s a bunch of people just trying to get home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured if he proactively set up the meeting with someone it likely means nothing, but if they were calling him and possibly other White Sox internet people (possibly to stress only reporting actual news and not rumors) it could be a good sign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
