DBAHO Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 WAIT AND SEE: Williams said he has been more than happy with the job of first-year manager Ozzie Guillen, calling the entire coaching staff one of the best he has ever been around. But when asked if a contract extension was in order, the GM wasn't ready to head in that direction just yet. ''I don't remember if it was a two-year deal or a three-year deal,'' Williams said. ''He probably doesn't even know. Once we did the deal, we tossed it to the side and started talking baseball. Somebody around here knows, I'll have to check. That's how relevant it is.'' For the record, Guillen's deal was for two seasons with a team option for a third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I'd wait until next season's conclusion before making any decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I'd wait until next season's conclusion before making any decisions. I agree. Ozzie still has to prove a thing or two, yet he deserves the opportunity to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Yeah wait until next season. This was more less a learning season for Ozzie as being manager. I'm sure he'll improve next year and then he can have a contract extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Defintely no need to extend him yet. He really shown that he was anything special yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I have never understood extensions when there is still at least a year on the contract. If the player/coach was all that and a bag a chips, I guess I could see wanting to lock that person into a contract (sorry reading all the high school posts took me back there for a second ). Whatever works I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
