They're really doing this just to be assholes, they think the fans and organization are desperate for him so they're just doing this so we have nothing in place and we can't start our process and plan what they plan on doing. Like a bunch of little greedy kids over there.

Oddly, today seems like the slowest news day since the agreement in the past week or so it seems. Usually there's tweets,articles and tons of stuff pumping out every day and so far it's unusually quiet.I know it's only noon,but still.

nickcafardo Nick Cafardo by CarrieMuskat Just asked John Henry if Theo deal was close to being done. "No, not close," he responded. 25 minutes ago nickcafardo Nick Cafardo by CarrieMuskat Sox GM (to be) Ben Cherington said reports of a deal between Sox and Cubs on Epstein are "premature. Haven't heard anything this morning." 1 hour ago

Roto According to Bruce Levine of ESPNChicago.com, the Cubs and Red Sox are "finalizing a deal" that will make Theo Epstein the next president of baseball operations for Chicago. The deal should be completed Thursday and announced at a press conference Friday, which is a travel day for the World Series. While the Red Sox are expected to receive minor leaguers as compensation, a source tells Levine that top prospects Brett Jackson, Trey McNutt and Matt Szczur will not be in the deal. The Cubs are expected to name the Padres' Jed Hoyer as general manager within the next few days while former Diamondbacks GM Josh Byrnes will take his place in San Diego.
-
Two other sources confirmed ESPNChicago.com's report that San Diego Padres general manager Jed Hoyer will be named Cubs GM a few days after Epstein's news conference. But Padres owner Jeff Moorad emailed ESPNBoston.com's Gordon Edes late Wednesday night that the Cubs had not asked for official permission to interview Hoyer. Hmmm.So is Theo just going behind the scenes and talking to him or what's going on?
-
It'd be even sweeter if Epstein during the conference pulls a Vince McMahon and goes " Mike Quade, YOUR FIRED!"
-
Wow this is amazing, all this blue balls Theo's been giving me and Mr. Ricketts just gave me a happy ending and finished it off. I can go to bed and wake up one happy [expletive] camper.
-
They were supposedly progressing well the other day, then all of a sudden there's a "stalemate", so that mean's tonight well hear the Red Sox are still " holding their ground" or some [expletive].
-
I'm all for the best guy in that position who is ballsy,gutsy, can make those poor contracts disappear and make the best decisions when it comes to signing Free agents and trades, whether it's Theo or one of the guys from SD.

Roto The Red Sox and Cubs remain at stalemate on compensation negotiations for general manager Theo Epstein. An announcement, reportedly, wouldn't come until Friday at the earliest, but only then with the permission of baseball commissioner Bud Selig. Epstein will apparently be able to bring one prominent member of Boston's front office to Chicago. That could be Jonathan Gilula, who is the executive vice president of business affairs. Trainer Mike Reinold might also move with Epstein, according to ESPN Boston's report. Epstein might only take the role of president of the Cubs and hire a general manager. If so, three former aides now in San Diego would be in consideration: GM Jed Hoyer, VP/baseball operations Josh Byrnes, and VP/assistant GM, player development and scouting Jason McLeod. Byrnes was the general manager of the Diamondbacks for more than four seasons.

Appearently we haven't talked to anyone from San Diego # Hoyer told Marty Caswell of XX1090 Sports Radio that he's not going to comment on media speculation (Twitter links). "I'm excited about what we continue to build here in San Diego," he said. # The Cubs haven't asked for permission to talk to any Padres executives, according to Dan Hayes of the North County Times (Twitter link).
