If anyone on this board has any idea of how all this went down, it would be Jimmy. I'm not a big insider guy on things that aren't the news the team wants you to release. Its not first or even second hand information and its distorted by the opinion of whoever gave it. I never said this while he was here (don or the player) but I knew a recent sox player well through my best buddy. When we were together talking baseball and sox He said "all the pitchers hated Cooper and that he was lazy as fuck" and didn't put in the work. Turns out that one pitcher felt that way and it happened to be a pitcher that was of course this players boy. Let's just say not every pitcher agreed. I dont doubt for one second that jimmy heard hahn wanted hinch. I dont doubt for one second that jimmy heard hahn wasn't a tlr guy. What I do doubt is that Rick hahn expressed and fought against larussa and was explicitly overruled and told to ff off. I think he likely interviewed and hahn came away accepting.

His ego wont allow for that. His coaching staff will be filled with old dusters and guys from yesteryear. I was only saying that if Rick was somehow was on-board with this, but I don’t believe that for a minute. But fuck, this will be even worse if he brings back a lot of his old crew. Much more manageable if they force some younger guys like Jirschele & Zaleski on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you don’t allow your employees to do their job when they are actually doing there job to help the team or organization succeed, it’s a punch to the face. This will appear to other front office people in the league that there is dysfunction in the organization and no one will want to come here. RH will leave in a year or two because he will get soo tired of putting up with it. Edited October 29, 2020 by maloney.adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the source is not rick hahn, speaking from some position of absolutes is laughable. If the source is rick hahn then jimmy can quietly sit on his throne and laugh at my ignorance gleefully. I'll guess hahn is here this year and next and beyond and that tlr and hahn are buddies and all is well though.

Everyone is in the same damn boat when it comes to the pandemic. Overall the Sox have saved the past few years and profited off shit ass product on the field no one wants to hear they are affected due to Covid, absolutely everyone is.

If you did then I tip my cap to you. Fact is though, you'd never reveal your source and no sox media member will blow this story up so what we have is speculation and me not having a clue as to what the real story is because I have as many sources in the front office as ChiSox1917 has good ideas in his head.

You have every reason in the world to say hahn wanted hinch and was overruled. You reported it would be hinch. Its not. Churn churn. Nothing Jimmy has said isn’t true. He said Hinch would be the guy because that’s who Hahn wanted and blatantly described at his end of season press conference. How would have known Jerry would supersede him and give his buddy the job as part of some late life crisis? It’s literally never happened in his career as owner of the Sox or Bulls. Furthermore, there is no one on the internet who has a better track record when it comes to inside information relating to the White Sox. If Jimmy says that Hahn got overruled here when at the same time all logic suggests a La Russa hiring would not be ideal for Hahn, I think it’s pretty easy to believe what’s he saying. Jimmy literally has no agenda here, he’s simply sharing what he knows. Edited October 29, 2020 by Chicago White Sox 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
