Lorretta's Lounge renamed after TLR
Bernstein covered this earlier and there are some questions with this story; The plaque is hanging in the stadium next to plaques of Jim Thome and Hawk Harrelson. pretty good company in the non-statue individuals of the stadium, also a better place to receive recognition than some non-descript corner of the stadium. The name of the area may have been changed prior to hiring Tony there has been no answer to this yet...maybe prior to 2020 season. LaRussa's Lounge in 2020 is a name that people could have related to and in 2020 this would have been a non-story and nobody would care. I would guess that the old hanging sign was converted to he new one. Why would they just throw it out as opposed to replacing Loretta with LaRussa on it. This makes more sense to me than the White Sox ripping a plaque off the wall and threw it out to get the new manager's name on something that zero people in the park ever pay attention too but is used to locate and manage sections/areas of the park logistically but let's all feign outrage over this.

The TLR Manager Thread
I'm not looking to carry water for Tony L. but I will..... in regard to Vaughn and his comments, I am looking at that more of a compliment to Vaughn moving to LF to help this career and team and taking the bull by the horns and riding it. Yermin has had ample opportunity in his career to make himself a fielder in some capacity and has not. Wouldn't it be great if he could play 1st, go to left or third or something. Vaughn has worked at third and now appears to be a fine LF and will potentially move to RF to fill that need until he settles in at first in a few years. Think about what would have happened if he went to LF and played like Eloy. There was one misread last week in NY and that's about it. If he was terrible in LF the Sox would be in a world of trouble, instead they have managed to overcome the Eloy injury and are only suffering with the lose of Robert. Was it a shot at Yermin, probably, and Yermin looks like he will be a MLB hitter but if he cannot find a place on the field he limits the options of the team and for that I am thinking Tony isn't in the mood to watch Yermin be Yermin because Yermin doesn't seem to grasp the fact that you should play defense. Tony is old school to a massive fault and my guess is Yermin being Yermin got old a long time ago......BUT.......Yermin is in there everyday and hitting 4th or 5th in the lineup so Tony is holding his nose and riding with it. Eloy is out this year because he was being Eloy and did something stupid for some dumb reason and that was not the first time. Vaughn made Tony's job much easier and Tony needs all of the help he can get at this point.
