October 28, 20205 yr 1 minute ago, fathom said: What if it’s the other way and JR said the job is his if he wants and he TLR finally agreed to it? Well yeah, that's my operating assumption at this point, I was just saying what I was hoping was happening since so many people not really in the org are telling anyone that will listen that he took the job.
October 28, 20205 yr Ugh. I sincerely hope all of this La Russa speculation is wrong. My offseason hype has sunk to an all time low because of this.
October 28, 20205 yr My question is if TLR is hired.... who replaces him in 2 years once he retires???

October 28, 20205 yr Rick Hahn's press conference, October 30th: People said we'd never hire a manager with previous experience, well we just hired the most experienced manager living. We're doing things differently here.
October 28, 20205 yr You have the pick of the litter and you're gonna hire a retread who has been out of the business a decade? Seriously?

Nothing has been leaked or officially announced yet. Just some talk maybe from TLR with his buddies. This is a process. I wouldn’t take too much stock into this just yet.

October 28, 20205 yr I don't want LaRussa, but I'm also surprised by the intensity and near-unanimity of the anti-TLR sentiment here and among fans I know. I would think he'd have more supporters just based on track record alone.

October 28, 20205 yr Sox are hiring La Russa and are also hiring Bruce Levine to take over their official Twitter account. Great day for the South Side.

I would think he'd have more supporters just based on track record alone. Its because the belief that he is being hired based solely because he’s Jerry’s buddy and hasn’t the managed a modern team. It goes against everything the Hahn went out and said when they let go of Renteria. It’s Jerry dictating the team and it’s revolting.
