My biggest take away from that article is now that the Elias admin is hush hush, Roch gets most of info from OH.  
 

Any guesses on his username or do you think he just lurks as a guest? 

Does anyone doubt that both Roch and Melewski monitor this board pretty closely?  As well they should IMO, because the OH serves as a pretty good news/rumor aggregator in addition to being a great source of informed speculation.

If they don’t, they’re not doing their job.  I’ve seen very obscure things I’ve posted here (like Dominican Winter League stats of various pitchers) show up in their blogs 24 hours later.   Fine with me.

They could at least attribute "an unnamed source at a prominent industry think tank..."

I guess it speaks well of the board but kinda sad if true and feels a bit wrong given the organization's treatment of Tony.

Would also be entertaining to be reading through a MASN article and come across, “Per Frobby, Diaz has exceeded preseason expectations, posting a stat line of…”

I prefer "Multiple knowledgeable sources believe that the White Sox asking price for Dylan Cease is exorbitant and ..." can support just about any narrative you want from that point on.

Yeah I’m not convinced they’re “in on” a good starting pitcher until they land one.

I think they've made inquiries.

Not sure they've made offers.

I think Elias is looking everywhere. But the cost is high in money and prospects.

He undervalues pitching so it isn't surprising he finds the asking price high.

I think so.  Why he thinks anyone cares is beyond me.
