Everybody has a different name. it's not a coincidence. I even saw a tweet saying Ozzie is not out of the running. That may be true, but I'm not officially out of the running either. I haven't been interviewed, and no one from the Sox has contacted me. But they haven't officially said I'm not an option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The Score talked about Thome also. I guess coaching 14u Sparks team is the equivalent to 2022 White Sox. 1 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were even the White Sox this season, so I have the tie in as well. Edited October 18, 2022 by T R U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Scott and Hahn are very tight given both are Michigan grads. I've been told he gets stuff from Rick that other media people don't so anything you see from him, you have to at least consider Rick may be feeding it to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Dear God, they are going to screw this up aren’t they? They need to hire someone for the manager position from outside the organization that will bring in fresh new ideas. Thome as the bench coach or the hitting coach would be good, but not the manager yet. Edited October 18, 2022 by maloney.adam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he gone.

You'd be hard pressed to find a negative take out of Merk about the Sox. My personal and totally unfounded guess. I think you see Hahn have the decision and it's not a "Sox" name, but then KW, JR have their say and power to essentially push their own bench coach .... aka Jim Thome, Willie Harris, AJ Pierzysnki, etc. etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta believe that in order to retain a minimum amount of faith in WillHahn. Edited October 18, 2022 by Chick Mercedes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 For once, it would be nice to see this organization run a genuine managerial search and at the end hire whoever the best candidate is. The entire org is so petrified of stepping outside of their comfort zone, it's insane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s because JR is too involved in the day to day operations and doesn’t allow Hahn to make the decision. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maloney.adam Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) @South Side Hit Men and whoever else is advocating that we aren’t going to see any changes to the organization right now is spot on. We are just being led on to think that it will happen under this ownership but it’s not going to happen until the organization is sold.
