It's true that what Borges is reporting is nothing unique or new. So, speaking of spin, all he's really offering that's different is a smart-than-thou tone:
His own breathlessness in reporting what he knows (along with others) makes it sound like he has unique perspective or understanding. I don't see that he does. He's right that some in the media have jumped the gun — I was surprised that 98.5 on Friday took a "now that a deal is done let's look at free agency tone." But folks who've followed Breer or others with credibility know that a deal is a step-by-step process with ups or downs and potential for collapse until everything is finalized.
