Slip of the Tongue


Pardon the cliché, but my jaw pretty much dropped to the kitchen table the other morning after I read a comment in the Tribune by White Sox general manager Rick Hahn.  Commenting on signing free-agent outfielder Jon Jay, Hahn added, “At some point over the course of the year, not at the start, but...we expect to have Eloy [Jimenez] join us as well.”  Excuse me, but did Hahn just come out and admit that the Sox didn’t call up Jimenez in September and won’t have him break camp out of spring training because they want another year of contract control over Jimenez?
 
And here I thought it was all about checking boxes and nothing more.
