Rey21 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Really wish I was a fly on the wall in the convos Rick Hahn is having with Jerry Reinsdorf about the budget. Hahn should be in Jerry’s ear all day about how he needs to step up for Marcell Ozuna or Nelson Cruz feel like leaving DH for Tommy La Stella/some lesser bat really is gonna come back to haunt the Sox especially cuz Vaughn needs time in the minors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a couple of additions that I think will put us over the top" JR "Well didn't you spend money on a closer and an RF. And I believe you added some salary for a starter with a trade. You have the best manager that ever lived. I think we are good enough. Tony thinks we can win." JR is a businessman. This is a business. If he wins he wins, if he doesn't well as long as the bottom line works out he is good. Edited January 26, 2021 by southsideirish71 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoYoIsMyHero Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I like how guys do what they can to protect their sources and are sometimes told to delete tweets, etc. and then you have Stone replying to random ass people on Twitter telling them what the Sox are/aren't gonna do next 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjusttyped Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I wonder how Stone is able to have such accurate sources. Unless Hahn or KW are including him in conversations on players, I don't understand how he's able to be so matter of fact (and accurate) about what the Sox will or won't do.

smellysox Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) So to recap today's events. Hector would like to see Cruz with the Whitesox "fits good in their lineup ". Not Cishek dm if no universal dh, could end up with sox. Als cheesy beef seems to really be pushing the Jerry loves Cruz narrative. Steve Stone says Cruz is not coming here. And the Twins beat rider says talks are dead between cruz and the Twins. Did I miss anything? No I'm not including the argument between my buddy Orlando and bucket.
