March 19, 200422 yr I didn't see this up anywhere here yet, sorry if it;s here and I missed it. I tuned in late to the game feed and hear Rooney say Joe Nossek stepped down as bench coach and the Sox are looking for a replacement. Does anyone have details? My game feed is bad today and I'll probebly lose it after a few innings, so if they get into it I may miss it. My quiet optimism about the season will take a serious hit without Nossek on the bench.
March 19, 200422 yr this news has f***ed up my day rookie excitable manager and no Nossek on the bench.
March 19, 200422 yr Author this news has f***ed up my day rookie excitable manager and no Nossek on the bench. My sentiments exactly. Nossek, Coop, and Kuysner (sp?) were the sole reasons the first year of the Ozzie experiment may not have been a disaster. With two weeks to go before opening day, who is going to come in cold that mesh with the team and have any kind of positive impact?
March 19, 200422 yr is that no experience as bench coach Harold Baines? To go with our whole no experience coaching and management staff? Sure if fits the Sox hiring system.
March 19, 200422 yr KW -- on the Cubs-Sox broadcast -- said the replacement would be left largely up to Ozzie
March 19, 200422 yr Harold Baines? i have no doubt that is who it will be, he is always helping out in the dugout and such anyways. I dont know if he is the right man for the job though
March 19, 200422 yr Jeff Torborg? Jeff is real good friends with Ozzie, so that would be good. KW just said in the booth with Hawk and DJ that he'll follow Ozzie's lead on this thing. I myself think Jeff would be a good hire.

March 19, 200422 yr Maybe Ogie Urbina can be our bench coach? He and Ozzie are friends. Only if he brings his gun.
March 19, 200422 yr Oh ok, I wouldn't of got that. I was gonna be pissed if I missed a WGN televised game.
