White Sox Sign Dunn

[Thad Bosley]

Not another year of this Oney Baloney crapola. Oy!

[maggsmaggs]

WE DID!! His name is Alexei Ramirez. Oney just confused signed and option picked up.

I kinda doubt Oney knows anything since the fallout with the FO last spring, unless Ozzie opened his mouth to him. If Ozzie told him anything, it might really piss off Kenny to the point of him going to JR and asking to fire Ozzie.(not that that would be a bad thing)

I mean if the ink is dry on the contract, it might not make him TOO mad, but if things are still in the works he needs to keep his flapping mouth shut for once.

Jim Thome?

Wouldn't it be funny if the Sox were trying to lure Paulie back with Thome?

all speculation on my part nothing is concrete - Oney Guillen

 

Kid is something, first says 'Sox signed' then says speculation. LOL.

Yes. His first tweet makes this one make no sense. Now he's covered. If the Sox don't sign Dunn he says he was just speculating. If the do, he was the one who first reported it. What a genius. Oney Guillen is a fool.

Someone needs to slap this kid.

Now if you replace Oney with soxnet a certain ST reporter would be in angry tweet mode giving everyone their lesson in how journalism works. But because its his buddy, then all is grand in the world.

I wouldnt discount his information that quickly because he's a douche. There are leaks all over the org, and I like it that way.

Things are picking up folks.

 

It sounds as if Adam Dunn won't be signing with the #Athletics; it is looking very much like the #WhiteSox will wind up with Dunn. - Susan Slusser

The only thing I've heard is Sox are desperate to try and get Dunn to make a decision before Angels are done chasing Crawford and Soriano. Everything still points to Konerko going elsewhere though.

At this point, it's probably just a self-sustaining rumor. Oney read one of the earlier tweets saying Dunn had the interest of the Sox, posted that it was nearly finished, then this person posts based on that...etc.

I totally agree, I put a lot more stock into this than if the beat writers said something similar.

That's assuming he can read.

Leaks can be very good. They leak a lot of stuff on purpose. There is no doubt KW was leaking a bunch of BS earlier this offseason so the reporters would be nowhere near what he was trying to do. On the other hand, it doesn't hurt when people are talking about possible acquisitions and talking White Sox baseball 4 months before opening day.

My guess is that the likely scenario is that Oney heard something, wanted to be first to report it, reported it, then I got yelled at, so then he said it was speculation.

My thoughts exactly.

[Steve9347]

I'll take Adam Dunn.

Wait, you're Oney?

[justBLAZE]

Pretty sure Oney reads Soxtalk and he is responding to me with his last tweet

His two tweets are quite contradictory, so there might actually be something to his first one. I doubt he knows a signing has occurred, but he may have heard some valid info from someone. His second tweet covers his ass.

[Rowand44]

DLee is done.

Eh, he was pretty damn solid after the AS break last season. Add that to his + glove and if you can get him at some sort of a discount, he'd be a very nice signing.

Its probably exactly what happened and Dunn will most likely be a White Sox.
