Have a GM and/or manager ever gotten so much mileage out of a WS appearance/win?

Ugh. I don't like the results of that inning. Good performance by Hudson.

Is this going to be the 3rd CG thrown against the sox this week?

How much longer to we have to watch Alex Rios? He is total garbage.

 

That Anthopoulos is a wizard.

Ozzie's greatest managing was during the 2005 world series...he stayed out of the game's way instead of injecting strategy to let u know he wasn't asleep on the bench

Like when he didn't pinch run in game 4 or when he forfeited game 3 instead of burning a starter in the 14th inning.

How long is his contract?

 

his contract terminates after 2014

Bruney does his job and walks the leadoff hitter.

That Anthopoulos is a wizard.

Yes he is. The owner should give him a lifetime contract for getting Rios and Wells off the books.

The guy consistently hits well his entire career. We sign him and all of a sudden he doesn't hit. Yeah, that's KW's fault.

Guy ain't in shape, saw his on-base percentage go down 42 points last year and can't play in the field

 

Reds fans haven't stopped laughing since the day the Sox signed him.

 

 

Cue Chris Young 2 run homer and the inevitable Phil Rogers article on Putz, Hudson and Young.

 

Or a K with Putz save. Something like that.

Well, on the positive side...Juan Pierre has a whopping 1/3 of the total White Sox hits this game.

As one of KW's biggest supporters and defenders over the years here (I don't think I ever even posted a negative thought regarding him), I'd like to say a big "f*** YOU Kenny!"

 

We're watching this impotent offense night after night while stiffs like Pierre and Rios are trotted out there night after night and KW can't even bring Viciedo up from Charlotte because our moronic asshole of a manager can't figure out where to play him!

 

They can't give Viciedo a chance yet Beckham can continue to stink the place up with his ridiculous swing and Rios can stink the place up with his ridiculous batting stance while Greg Walker is given another vote of confidence. And Juan Pierre can suck on offense, suck on defense, and suck on the basepaths yet lead off every game night after night.

 

f*** JR, KW, Ozzie and the rest. I'll laugh at them when the Cubs sweep the Sox at the Cell in front of nightly crowds of 25,000 next week.

AJ!

It'll be awesome next year because the Sox coaching staff and front office will still have their jobs. They'll simply raise ticket prices, so the lack of attendance won't really affect anything. Just like they did this offseason.

 

In 2017 the tickets will cost about $489 a piece, but there will only be about 75 people at the park

Bruney is Garbage. Why not just call up Addison Reed at this point? Who f***ing cares?

He's no more out of shape than he has been the last 6 or 7 years. He just hasn't hit.

I've been resisting, but I now am starting to believe my beloved white sox are about to wander in the desert for a few years. I hope Rick has a say in who gets traded and for what. A big say.

That Anthopoulos is a wizard.

 

Actually JP Ricciardi was GM of the Jays at the time, and he is total opposite of A.A. Just makes KW look more foolish.

However A.A. did get rid of Wells, so maybe we can get rid of Rios, but who am I kidding

amen

It still stuns me how little impact Rios has had this year. There have been no real moments where he had a big hit or a great catch. As much as we hate him he isn't going anywhere

I love you.

Ozzie mentioned the WS win in his rant a week or so ago. He believes he deserves a lifetime pass.

You just don't understand Kenny's master plan. Viciedo being a young, cost-controlled prospect with potential, will be traded for a questionable veteran iteration that costs 10 times as much and is only under team control for 1.5 years. Win now.

He's no more out of shape than he has been the last 6 or 7 years. He just hasn't hit.

 

career .248 hitter.

 

saying he ever 'hit' is a stretch.

 

he's got 3 1/2 years to turn it around.

 

No rush.

 

any chances of placing Rios on waivers in July and a team claiming?
