I wish one reporter had prefaced a question with, “Do I have to wait to ask this question after a parade?”

Hey… look! Outfield defense!!

Don’t blame him one bit.

1.95 billion of them.

CSNChicago is replaying the presser and giving comments from Chuck and Ozzie - it’s on YouTube streaming from their channel.

How about putting LaRussa’s salary towards an analytics department and put your “traditional sensibilities” in the toilet.

What was the response? I tuned out about five minutes into Hahn’s portion.

That was fun - I was listening hoping to hear someone say something like, “well that was fucking horseshit.” Positives: Bologna is out of the entire organization and it seems most of the coaching staff may follow suit. Negatives: The brain trust survives. Our roster and payroll is a mess that will rely on bounce back years. So cool.

Gee ya think Rick?

He’s posting on this thread.

Needs: to have the offense return to what they can be, better defense, better depth. Duh

He said the opposite of number 4.

Rick Hahn talking about qualifications for the next manager, “basically who we wanted last time that isn’t of the mold that Tony was from” Thats paraphrased of course but he is specifically saying that thankfully they’ll “break the mold and look for people who don’t necessarily have ties to the White Sox, aside from with the exception of Miguel Ciro.”

Players aren’t staying for Rick ?

Rick time

I think it’s also in line with what he said prior about not telegraphing their intentions publicly but it should be pretty obvious.

Yup. Good things happen after all. ?

I posted it a couple pages ago.

“I’m going to tell them what the priority of focus should have been but the chances of me telling you that are zero.”

They’re showing a shot of the assembly of reporters and JR is sitting in the top row with some players standing over him - Zavala and Cease are two I can make out

“At some point I’m going to open a bookstore.” hahahaha no joke that’s a literally quote.

They’re opening it up to questions now and of course Bruuuuuce gets the first lob ball. He says LaRussa is releasing a song today that is indicative of his future plans: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8AHCfZTRGiI

Oh no… he just said “our organization” when looking at evaluating future choices. Good god.

Oh no “now I want to talk about what’s going forward”… here comes the atom bomb?

From what I’ve read and hear so far I don’t hear anything about him remaining in a different capacity - I’m shocked. Please be true.
