Ozzie Guillen Released from Contract
QUOTE (JPN366 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:59 PM) Phil Rogers just said that Walker has been successful as a hitting coach. That would have me stop reading the article right there.

Ozzie Guillen Released from Contract
QUOTE (chiguy79 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:38 PM) Ozzie orchestrated this from the beginning and got what he wanted, enough said. JR has got to have a lot of unhappy investors and losing a lot of money this year, Ozzie knew barking for more money would get him a release so he can go to FL where he wants to be. Guillen was loyal to Guillen ..............his White Sox loyalty talk was such nonsense.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:16 PM) Smartest move the Marlins ever made. Sox are close to being irrelevant in this town of Chicago, losing a headline stealer like Ozzie. If you think that's not important in this Cubbie-town I believe u are mistaken. KW better make some significant changes cause the manager wasn't the problem with this poorly built team. Ozzie's better off in Florida. I hope the Sox make significant player changes for the Buddy Bell era. It's no fun being on the downslide. The Royals are coming and we are sliding personnel-wise. Good luck, Ozzie. You are the best manager in Sox history. Good luck, Ozzie successor. This season sucked and we fans want to have something to cheer about during the season as well as the postseason. KW won't make the same mistake again. He'll hire a Williams puppet. Hope he picks a good man. I wanna win. From the espn.com story "Only Jimmy Dykes and Al Lopez have won more games as White Sox manager than Guillen, who led the club to the World Series title in 2005. Now in his eighth year at the helm, Guillen said he never expected to ride the coattails of that championship forever."

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:11 PM) I'm sure the trade was already agreed upon. If not, the Marlins would now hold all the cards since the Sox released Guillen. Then why not do the deal now.............Sox can have OG sit on his ass Florida needs OG to open the new ballpark. Florida holds nothing but air without OG and who is going to take a lame duck 1 year job.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:09 PM) Glad it's over but sorry to see him go. Unlike most around here, I don't hate the guy. But it's time for change. Too bad Williams is staying. Jerry's a joke. KW should also be doing his last presser with OG I agree.

Ozzie Guillen Released from Contract
QUOTE (Kalapse @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:01 PM) He's been released of his contract but the Sox retain right for compensation should he find a managerial job elsewhere. So basically he's being traded. Hopefully that means Sox will get what they want from Florida once season ends.............Sox just raised the price of poker and I like it.

Mark Buehrle appreciation thread?
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 11:07 AM) You keep saying this without any sound reasoning behind it. Next year's Cardinals rotation: Adam Wainwright: $9 million Chris Carpenter: $11 million Kyle Lohse: $12 millon Jake Westbrook: $8.5 million Jaime Garcia: arbitration eligible They've got two of the top pitching prospects in the game in Shelby Miller and Carlos Martinez (with the former being nearly big-league-ready). Lance Berkam was just re-upped for 1 year, $12 million. They've got a club option on Yadier Molina (he's going to get a nice raise). Then, of course, they have a 1B to worry about that's going to command upwards of $30 million a year. Suffice it to say, Mark Buehrle is nowhere near a priority for them at this point. Stl can trade a starter to make room for MB, who knows how Wainright will do come spring. Stl would dump Lohse or Westbrook in a heartbeat to make room.
