As much as everyone complained about him, would the Sox have a better record right now if he was running the team instead of Ventura? Maybe last season was just a nice break from Ozzie, and had nothing to do with Robin's influence or ability.

Possible. Depends how nuts he went on them. He would need to stay under the absolutely nuclear Ozzie line.

If it were the Ozzie that wasn't completely full of himself, I'd say yes. Post WS Ozzie? No. Maybe current Ozzie has been humbled so I'd hope his focus would be better...

He'll be back eventually. He will be the Billy Martin of the White Sox.

I mentioned that,too. If you don't want Ozzie bring in Larry Bowa. Same guy but with even more of a temper.

I really believe Oswaldo would be getting more out of the GM.Everytime he would take Billy Koch out of a game he would look up at Kenny as to say you give me this piece of shit as a closer..come on man.

Their record might be marginally better but they would be even more unlikable.

Mt. Guillen would've not only erupted, but he would've rested Alexei Ramirez by now, too. He's started every White Sox game and has only gotten minimal rest this season. No wonder he's struggling defensively!

He played the same amount last season and it didn't affect his defense.

Maybe playing time isn't the issue.



I've missed you...

I'm still here, but not as much as before. Alexei has played all but a couple of innings this season. He's not Cal Ripken, Jr., and I feel RV is going to burn him out the more he plays.

At least the players would be as miserable as fans

cant say what would happen in the long run, but I saw one play the other night, it was a totally botched rundown. Thought it was a replay, as of course Hawk doesnt speak during anything negative Sox (Great ANNOUNCER!) , but I cant imagine Ozzie would have just sat in the dugout after that play, he would just be so incensed he would have a meeting on the mound to go over the issue right there and blame whoever fucked up. Maybe Robin does this? Cant say I have tuned into enough, White Sox ACTION this year to see Robin ever express an ounce of emotion. I am sure Baines takes care of the bad cop stuff.

This is my take on it. Maybe finally realizing that baseball can and did get by quite nicely without him knocked him back down to size. But I think those fucking kids will always be an albatross. If he can't check them, I would expect the same craziness.

Get more out of them? Has anyone looked at Ozzie's second half records.

They would probably have a better record with Ozzie, but I don't think it would be anymore than like 3-5 games. They would be absolutely terrible regardless of who was the manager.

Either way, they'd have a manager who date-raped the English language on a daily basis.
