Theo Epstein's Press Conference is at 11 a.m. Tomorrow

Finally the Cubs announce the time of the Press Conference tomorrow; Tuesday, October 25th at 11 a.m and will be held at Wrigley Field. Introducing Theo Epstein as new President of Baseball Operation. We still don’t know if the Cubs will introduce new GM Jim Hoyer or if there will be a separate news conference for that. With his assistant GM McLeod. Also, other changes to the front office. Such as…Kenney’s new position.

During the Press Conference, could we hear who Epstein is bringing over from Boston? I would hope too, but that does not sound like a likely scenario. Also, could Theo announce the long awaited compensation going from the Cubs to the Red Sox? That also does not sound likely. But, maybe Epstein and new Red Sox GM Cherrington hammer it out today, so Epstein can announce it tomorrow. That may be more of wishful thinking than anything else from me.

However, the compensation has a deadline of November 1st or Bud Selig will step in and finally finish out the deal. As it appears, the Red Sox/Cubs ‘trade ‘ will be completed soon.

I’m happy that I will be able to see the press conference as I work ’till 9 and could go home to see it live. I want to see if him (Epstein) or Tom says anything surprising. I will try my best to have a write-up of the news that either Eptein or Ricketts says during the press conference.

Anyone else going to watch the long awaited press conference tomorrow?

It'll probably be streamed on the internet like when they announced Quade as manager. Should be interesting.

Yes it will be, Comcast Sportnet is expected to have it streamed. And prolly more, but that's all I know right now.

If the unthinkable happened, would Selig just nix the trade or force the players to be traded?

I don't think that would happen. Selig doesn't want to set a bad precedent for other executive "trades" and so would probably step in and lowball the Red Sox if anything. But I don't know that for sure.

 

[waldo7239117]

He won't nix the trade. I think it's more of a threat than anything else. So...it makes the 2 parties get a damn deal done.

After, Silvy will be doing cartwheels down state st. and offered all cubs fans to join in

Everybody have different views on the article and what needs to be fixed. I have been told stuff to be fixed and I disagreed. So, maybe what you say needs to be fixed, it either doesn't or I disagreed.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the issues you outlined in the post. He's probably grousing about your spelling or something.

Yeah I guess. No one knows, everybody has different standards.

 

[Jntg4]

Yeah I guess. No one knows, everybody has different standards.

I meant that you weren't even using sentences, just fragments. I didn't pay attention to spelling. Only bringing it up because I think CCS would get more readers if they didn't see half-sentences and stuff, not to offend you.

Ya, I wonder how much of it they will have put on later, probably not the whole thing, I'd assume?
