So one minor league pitcher with pre existing control problems fails, so he shouldn't get the job. Makes sense. We all know how fail safe 2nd round picks are.

are we talking about Hinch or TLR?

Hahn was pretty much as clear as he gets on this. It will be an internal promotion.

And Hahn flat out named Zaleski as a candidate during his presser.

It's Zaleski or Hasler.

It's so hard. On one hand you have a survey of baseball executives and Hahns peers who do this job for a living, understanding his job in intimate detail. On the other hand this guy on the internet thinks we should hold 2013 against Hahn.

Disagree to agree.

Aw. No more Dr Seuss meets a crack binge?

The numbers have done nothing but accelerate since school started, but that isn't the problem. Sure. Lol, right. People want to believe so bad they just buy anything. Literally every time we loosen restrictions and open up, numbers go back up.

To spare the rest of us, He's mocking you.

KC was a .500 team against the rest of baseball. Detroit nearly was. The record vs .500 teams thing is deceptive this season, as one team was single handedly responsible for that, making it look like they sucked against everyone.

So your argument is that Forman is better because he destroyed the really good team he inherented? Yeah, I think you need to quit digging the hole you are already in. The comp was bad, but it got worse after you "explained " it. That is impressive. The gigantic hole in this is the last few years were full of losses on purpose. They rebuild to acquire tons of young talent. They did EXACTLY what they set out to do.

So his peers felt that Rick Hahn was the Executive of the Year, yet some on Soxtalk are panning his work. I mean...

He didn't though. He lied to everyone. He kept Correa, Altuve, Springer, Berkman etc He is employing a team full of cheaters. The only one he got rid of was the guy who wasn't allowed to work.

Notice he didn't get of any players, right? You know he brought in Roberto Osuna right after the whole wife beating thing happened. Spare me the idea that somehow Houston has some sort of standards that the White Sox don't.

The big man earned it. Great season for him.

If Stone is revealing actual team information it is because the team wants it out there. The quickest way out of the White Sox family is leaking information that is meant to be secret.

It is interesting to think that TLR had the biggest steroids operation in baseball under his nose in Oakland and did nothing to stop it... sound like anyone else we are talking about?

Been saying all year that people should look at the higher level here. Great news for this franchise

A live look at the Sox managerial hunt...

I am so surprised [/sarcasm]

I wish they hadn't.
