Welcome new mod Governator

[Gary]

And it is in fact false. But I had to dig through 3 other threads instead of the locked one before I could even find this information.

 

The source is probably EE himself. Duh.

[Jonn]

While ignoring Gary apparently he has mutiple backup accounts.

[Governator]

lol! Taking a nobody source, translating it with Google and considering it concrete news is ridiculous...

 

We had a discussion happening in the off season thread and until there's anything official to report lets just leave it there.

[Krylian]

Time to add Gary to the ignore list.

 

You can add Joshtowers too.

[Jonn]

You can add Joshtowers too.

 

He's already on the list.

The source is credible in the DR...where EE physically is right now. There are sports reporters outside North America.

You're doing fine man, locking non-informative threads from troll posters is not an issue at all.

The source works for ESPNDep and has a verified Twitter account.

Pretty brutal mod if you ask me. Locking threads left and right. Says no credible reports because EE and his agent are in the DR. He locks thread from a report on EE signing for 5/115 that originated from the DR. More credible than US sources.

 

Why do people love to bitch about everything here. s*** is not official it's just a rumour going around, why should it have its own thread? You want to talk about it there's the Around Baseball thread. Good on Gov for closing it, too much clutter on the first page anyways

Why can't we have an Edwin specific thread? Would that really be so bad? Multiple EE threads have been shut down today. I'm not claiming the world is ending or anything and I'm not trying to rip on Governator I just don't understand the rationale of not being allowed to created EE threads.

I didn't close the other one. This one was just not necessary.

You're referring to Antonio Puesán who tweeted Edwin COULD sign with the Astros for 115MM... He wasn't the original source, that was a dude from some local newspaper editor in the DR that started it. Regardless, I'm not carrying on this conversation.

There was a general EE thread that went off the rails and went to s*** and turned into bickering (Gov didn't lock that thread either). Geniune question, what is there left to discuss Edwin that hasn't been/can't be discussed in the Offseason or Around baseball threads? Once there is a concrete rumor and someone makes a thread for it, I'm sure mod's won't shut it down. I don't get why people are up in arms after he locked the thread with an uncredible source. Are we at the level that we should discuss fake rumors?

Wrong and wrong.

It's all good. Just tired of talking EE in multiple threads trying to follow all the latest only to have it shut down and restarted elsewhere.

Two terrible posters took over four straight pages and spammed stupidity for hours. It was unreadable. Try having a sane discussion in that.

He's referring to the other thread and it was fine and on topic when it closed. I don't give a f*** either way though.

Yeah that happened in the Fowler thread today as well.
