New GM/Cubs Future News Articles

[Pushfrog98]

Man I really wanted something to happen today....my afternoon at work is going so slow...

Mine too, but mostly because I've been on here waiting for something to go down...

[Benchwarmer]

I also listened to the WEEI interview. Apparently a number of Red Sox players were not in shape this year. Luchino has talked with nutrition people recently, whether this could have contributed to the 2nd straight late season collapse. Some pitchers drank beer in the clubhouse during games. Landscape is changing from paying older, veteran players to younger ones. Luchino choked a bit at the question of who was insisting on signing Carl Crawford. He claims every decision was a 'group concensus'. CYA.

 

Luchino was the lead player to fixing up Fenway, sticking advertising signs everywhere, closing off a side street(like Ricketts wanted to do) on game days and having a street festival atmosphere. He feels like Theo gets all the credit for the ballclub and he gets nothing for the business side and new revenue streams.

"As this day goes on, consensus seems to grow that Henry's a.m. remarks were preparing for Theo's jump to the Cubs. Big afternoon coming?"

these blue balls hurt so much

[Little Slide Rooter]

There will be much F5ing throughout the afternoon.

 

So if they do announce an Epstein signing, what's the over under on new threads about it started within a 5 minute span?

Jon Heyman lives in his own bizarre little world that is unimpacted by the news of the day. I really hate that guy, he just hates to admit that he's about to be wrong.

I have the weirdest feeling that Heyman is right

"Hmmm...how do I make a tweet giving my guess about what will happen without having to take a hit if I'm wrong? I know...I'll blame it on random 'People around the game" or a mythical 'consensus'."

[Little Slide Rooter]

But theres always the outside chance that neither Rogers nor Heyman have a clue and they're just doing their own speculating. The Red Sox and Cubs are likely the only 2 factions that really have any idea what's going on.

[Clem Fandango]

Really, Jon Heyman? Things will stay the same unless they change? Ya don't say!?!? Who let their lips loose on that spicy nugget?

[Vinestal]

The bizarre thing is that "people around the game" the majority of them who are talking are saying the opposite of what he's saying.

He also added that if they do change, things will be different.

He probably found two people working on the ground crew for the Dodgers that think Theo is staying.

That made me lol

We need an @thekapman tweet. He surely can shed some light on this.

 

Eh, nothing from him, either.

[Elrhino]

I doubt even legit "baseball people" have a clue what is going on right now. Probably only the inner circle of Ricketts/Cubs and Henry/Red Sox know what's going on.

heyman says something we dont like to hear? THIS GUY IS SUCH A JOKE

 

good sounding tweets: "this makes sense. where there's smoke there's fire. we'll hear something soon"

 

bad sounding tweets: "hack writer. nobody knows anything at this point. it's all speculation. we'll just have to wait and see"

Im starting to think that the Red Sox stats computer "Carmine" has becom self aware and has decided to start messing with everyone. Maybe this will all be settled by Monday or Tuesday. :beg:

[UMFan83]

So we're mocking the guy that says he's not coming here but not the guy who says he's coming here? Hmm

Make sure to credit @thekapman when mentioning he had nothing to say.
