You need to find a Cuban born manager to motivate all the lazy Cubans you have under contract now

Another Sox post from Bob!

Maybe it's already happening, but I'm waiting for a manager who is a figurehead and whose decisions are 100% controlled by the front office and analytics staff during the game. Baseball moves at a slow enough pace where that would be possible.

Don't get me wrong, I would hate it. But, it has to be coming.

Oh hell, lets do this. Reunite the 2005 White Sox and lets have some fun. Bring AJ in as manager, and bring Ozzie, Paulie, and Thome in as coaches. I'd love Thome and Paulie working with the hitters as well as having input on trades and minor league call-ups. Ozzie and AJ would not put up with the bullshit lack of fundamentals and laziness as bench and position coaches.

Oh, he might have went on livin'
But he made one fatal slip

With the big iron on his hip

Shrewd trading of lazy, always on the IL, low baseball IQ Tim Anderson would rejuvenate the organization.

I would get rid of him and atleast 2 cubans including grandal.

The Tribune put Chris Getz on the list of managerial candidates. I think that's a stretch, but if he gets hired, that would definitely be a front office figure head situation.

I hope they keep Anderson just so he can keep on triggering Cubs fans.

John Rocker for manager.

The problem with that is the White Sox lack a true analytics department. They have 5 analysts. The Rays now have 37.

The Sox are an organization trapped in the past. And it's sad because they had a leg up with their relationship with John Dewan and STATS, Inc. before anyone had ever heard of "Moneyball." I suspect that choosing Kenny Williams over Dan Evans was the tipping point.

Billy Beane and Williams were both considered "can't miss" prospects. Beane recognized that he himself was not a player he would want as a GM. Kenny Williams keeps trying to draft versions of himself hoping for different results. When one isn't completely a bust like Tim Anderson, it makes him believe his approach is correct. That's why he selects Jared Mitchell when Mike Trout is on the board. It's a fucking disaster.

What has Billy Beane won with his approach? I don't know who's responsible for the pitchers and 1st basemen, but the Sox have had a stud first baseman and starting pitcher for nearly my entire life.

John Dewan

wasn't he right before What's Your Beef ?

See David Ross

Not sure why anyone would want Shildt. So that means he will probably be the choice.

Washington: It's incredibly hard
Hahn: Hey, anything worth doing usually is
Washington: What about the fans, maybe I can teach one of them

Come on now. He spends less per win than probably anyone else. Only Tampa might be close in recent years.

Are you going to promote wins per dollar spent as something other than a stat for losers?

The Texas -St.Louis World Series was the worst managed World Series in my lifetime. LaRussa vs. Washington.

Since 2000, Oakland has won a grand total of two playoff series. One of them being the 3 game series against the Sox in 2020.
