Do you guys think Rentaria finishes the season as manager? I know no manager could win with this squad..and Happy has such a positive attitude and is a great teacher...but I think alot of items are falling through the cracks. |

You’re right no one could win with this team but even I didn’t think they’d be this bad but unfortunately i think PR is here for this year and probably next year too. They actually think he’s teaching them the right way to play the game. |

I dunno, he seems like a loser. |

Nah, but I think it would be wise to can him after the season at the earliest - and the latest. |

Who do you hire to replace him? And why would they want to come here knowing they probably won't be here if/when the Sox get good? |

I'd bring back Guillen at seasons end. |

AJ is going to be a great manager and this organization really needs a hate to lose guy. Ozzie will never manage again. |

You want a nice guy or a winner? Guillen used to destroy young players when he was with the Sox. He is not who they need. I think there was a young guy in their minor leagues who has won a few awards as a manager and I wouldn't be surprised if he is on their short list when Ricky meets his end. You have to remember JR both with the WS and Bulls, he refuses to negotiate with agents for non players. That is why they never get experienced guys with options. Both teams are usually employing first time field and general managers. |

Last White Sox coach was Jeff Torborg, who had a little over a year experience in the 70s, didn't manage for 10 years, and then took the White Sox job. |

The experience of the manager is the key to all rebuilds. |

Wrong. Rick Renteria was an MLB manager previously. |

Excluding the current manager who has experience as an MLB manager, the last one was Torborg. |

A manager is worth 2-3 wins at most in either direction. Hahn/Kenny need to worry about fielding a team that can win north of 78 games before the manger becomes important. |
