September 12, 20223 yr Pacemaker comments from someone who has one. The key thing is to know which type. On a simplistic level, there's a basic pacemaker which helps people like me with a-fib to stay in regular heart rhythm. There's also the pacemaker/defibrillator which can shock you back into rhythm. Obviously, this version is used for more severe underlying conditions. The procedure itself is very simple and is usually done under light general anesthesia. A circular disk goes under the skin just below the shoulder and wires run from the disk to heart wall. Overnight your heart is monitored and if everything is okay, you go home the next morning. I was told to take it very easy for 4-5 days, then easy for a couple of weeks, then live my life - just nothing to strenuous for a while. Many people commented about Tony's low energy level. That likely will get a better if the underlying condition isn't too bad. We don't know enough to really speculate on the course of his recovery.

September 12, 20223 yr The Sox can't let him come back to an incredible stressful situation like the middle of a pennant race just weeks after having a pacemaker installed. And I don't believe his Doctors will sign ok it either. Way too much possible liability issues involved.
September 12, 20223 yr Flipping around the radio dial on my way to work and the guy doing the sports scores on Rock 95.5 said the mere presence of TLR made them lose yesterday. Not judging, just passing along that report ?
September 12, 20223 yr If LaRussa winds up not coming back to manage the White Sox, will the higher ups in the FO still be a bunch of anal fornicational intellectual incapacitants?

September 12, 20223 yr It is better health wise for LaRussa to not return. Baseball wise it is also good that he doesn't return. The team still shows its flaws, but is winning, and it doesn't need the LaRussa distraction. It also gives the Sox FO an out not to bring him back in 2023. The hiring shouldn't have happened, and now the situation is correcting itself.
September 12, 20223 yr Listening to Whitesox Talk Podcast this morning and Garfein is saying his pacemaker was put in during spring training and something happened on August 30th that concerned doctors that required an adjustment to it. This in itself is a concern. The ownership allowed this guy to manage all season after an operation like that….wtf no wonder he is mr mumbles this season and seems so out of it. The dude should not be allowed back in the dugout simply whatsoever
September 12, 20223 yr A pacemaker can take you from listless to normal like magic. Ask someone who had one done. But some of this stuff sounds like it's also a perfect excuse for what needs to be done, and Tony's in on it. Either way, we're in a big, big hole on the loss side and Cleveland has its momentum back.

Seems kind of sketch that the FO knowingly let him continue while also hiding that his health might be an issue. Not that I am remotely surprised.
September 12, 20223 yr There’s 3 weeks left. I don’t care if he comes back this season because I don’t think it matters at this point. Just retire after the season. That’s all I ask. Edited September 12, 20223 yr by flavum
