Jordan4life_2007 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 22, 2011 -> 03:13 PM) That also ignores the fact that A-Gon & Tex have very similar contracts from 2012 on. Also, you are excluding Crawford/Drew on one side, while not including Cano or Grandy on the other side. How much does Posada even play anymore anyway? I didn't ignore anything. I said more than once that other than Crawford, they've gotten elite-level production for market or well below market value from all of their top guys. I don't really include Drew because he hasn't played. Gonzo? Yes, I fully recognize that starting next year he'll be getting paid. Again, I'm talking this year. Posada has nearly 400 PAs. So he's not just riding the bench. You're right about Cano/Granderson. Edited September 22, 2011 by Jordan4life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 28, 2011 Author Share Posted September 28, 2011 http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/white-sox/..._medium=twitter Sox players react to Guillen's departure September, 27, 2011 By Doug Padilla CHICAGO -- Chicago White Sox players reacted with shock over Ozzie Guillen’s departure not because it happened, but because of when it came. Most players seemed to believe that Guillen wouldn't return next year, but they didn’t think the move would come until the end of the season. Guillen gathered White Sox players in the clubhouse before Monday’s game and made an emotional announcement that it would be his last game. Paul Konerko and A.J. Pierzynski both stayed late Monday to discuss Guillen’s departure. Other players were asked about it Tuesday. Gordon Beckham, on whether the players feel responsible that he is no longer with the club: “Well, pretty much. If we play well, he’s still here. That’s the name of the game in anything. If you don’t play well, you don’t stick around. You only get so many chances and we failed him. It just didn’t work, we just didn’t play well. He wasn’t out there winning games or losing games for us, he can only manage what he’s got and we didn’t play well. We didn’t play well enough, so you have to look at the players before you look at anything else.” Carlos Quentin, on whether or not Guillen’s outgoing persona played well in the clubhouse: “Different guys perceive Ozzie differently, especially outside the clubhouse he’s seen a little differently. Everyone in here was comfortable with who Ozzie was and going around and he loves to talk. He gives you guys plenty of material. Me personally, I got along really well with Ozzie. He talked a lot to me. I listened a lot. But like I said, he let me go out and play. I’ll always thank him for that with just who I am as a player. He understood that and that was big for me.” Omar Vizquel, on being the only player to attend Guillen’s farewell press conference after Monday’s game: “I just went there to support the whole Ozzie family and the legend that he left here in Chicago. It’s important for the Venezuelan people to kind of stick together. There’s a few guys here covering what could be my last couple of games here in Chicago or in baseball, either way. And we wanted to listen from his own world, from his own mouth, what was going on and what was the future. For me it was kind of like being supporting of him to be right next to him at that moment.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Totally random by White Sox related... I was watching The Social Network last night because it popped on on Starz, and during the end credits they were showing a commercial for one of their own shows, called "Boss". It's Kelsey Grammer as the mayor of Chicago, and a pretty brutal one at that. Anyway, first scene of the commercial, the guy introducing the mayor at a press conference... Kenny Williams (not an actor, but the actual KW). Thought that was odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, no. The Sox released Ozzie from his contract, and he signed essentially as a free agent with Florida. The compensation will come later (I'd bet sometime in November) that way the Sox have the open roster spots from free agents and the like, and they will send some horrible rookie ball guy to Florida in exchange for the two Marlins prospects. Manager trades a bit different in their mechanics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
