That is sexy.

While Rick Hahn has sucked at free agency, even though his moves weren't bad they just didn't work out, he makes up for it with his ability to lock up players to team-friendly deals. That alone has helped reshape the franchise. The contracts Sale, Eaton and Quintana are on is incredible. The Sox have a new draft philosophy and Kenny Williams has taken a back seat finally. So they should be better going forward. Now, who knows how these prospects will work out. But I'm just glad they FINALLY picked a direction and will let Hahn do his job.
