September 23, 201114 yr Link Omar Vizquel and Jim Thome exchanged lineup cards Thursday night for what might have been the last time they will appear on the same field as players. A similar scenario could occur for manager Ozzie Guillen as he hopes to learn his future status during the White Sox's final homestand that starts Friday night. While the players begin the process of packing their belongings in boxes that will clutter the clubhouse, it remains to be seen whether the Sox's high-profile leader will find out soon whether he will get an extension past 2012, or if he should start taking the photographs and framed posters off the walls of the U.S. Cellular Field office that he has occupied since 2004. "I'm not going to think that way," Guillen said after the Indians humbled the Sox 11-2. "When you manage, you come every day to the ballpark. It can be your last day, especially the way we played this year. But I'm going to come with the same approach. If I come back, I come back. If not, I'm not. "I don't lose sleep with that, and that's more important for me. Obviously, we think about it because we have family. I have to see what's going on. But whatever happens will be the best for me and whoever. Come back or not, that's what God has for me, I guess. That's my destiny. I count to come back, but there are a lot of things in the air that have to get done and we'll see what happens." Guillen's future also could dictate the destiny of his coaching staff, which has been with him for at least four seasons, and many have deep roots in the Sox's organization. After the 2010 finale, it appeared Paul Konerko and A.J. Pierzynski had played their final games as Sox players, but they re-signed with the Sox in last-minute deals.

These guys should be a package deal. If one is fired, both should be axed.
September 24, 201114 yr Kenny wants to conduct business in a respectful way. Great, wonderful. If they were winning, Kenny would be yelling from the mountain tops about how they do things differently on 35th. Bottom line is who cares how business is conducted when you have a horse crap team.
September 24, 201114 yr He needs time to feel out the Marlins, of course it won't be done after the season. Why is Kenny going there?
September 24, 201114 yr Guillen's talk about his contract status has taken the focus away from what a terrible team Kenny has put together. Kenny should THANK Guillen on the way out.

You're an arrogant bastard that believes that since you played baseball in high school (which, you know, probably everyone on this board did) you're qualified as a goddamn baseball genius that should have the next Moneyball be made after him. And I'm pretty sure you're the sadomasochistic creep here considering you just invited us to blast you again considering you can't f***ing spell.
