Somebody should interview current managers in baseball like LaRussa off the record and find out what they think of the laughable KW.

 

Wouldn't that be sort of redundant? You've already interviewed random people in Kansas.

Did the team actually name him anything officially? It's been reported that he was simply told not to show up today.

Exactly. KW said nothing of the sort last night and Cora's name wasn't even mentioned in the official press release or Merkin's story that was published around 12:30 last night. Seems like local reporters were just throwing Cora's name out there on Twitter since he was the bench coach, the White Sox never publicly named Cora anything. It only makes sense that Coop would be the man from the start, he's a KW guy and they're trying to make him as happy as possible to keep his ass around into the next regime, Cora was always going to follow Ozzie, why would KW hand the reins over to him for the final 2 games?

Per Cowley;

 

 

Joe is still telling Ozzie's story to the bitter end, and that doesn't say anything official. It is very possible the Sox didn't know that Cora had violated tampering rules and negotiated his own deal with Florida and the Sox found out about it. I know Joe wouldn't report that.

Source: Cora will be Ozzie's bench coach in Florida. Jeff Cox next most likely to land in Miami but unclear if he will.

Clearing up published report, Joey Cora thought he was interim manager because Ozzie told him so. Ozzie just assumed.

There, now people jumping to ridiculous conclusions can just drop it.

Jewfro beats down Cowley. I love it because he hates Garfien

I'm bewildered that Cowley is employed. Most Sox bloggers provide better objective insight.

Boston Red Cubs bench coach Demarlo Hale a candidate?

 

He's from Chicago.

 

Hmmm...

Don't worry about Cowley. He'll be working in Miami soon enough, and we won't have to worry about his crap anymore.

It's obvious it's Alomar. Steve Stone says so on the score website.

I would agree.

 

So the question is, will Sandy be good?

My answer: Yes. If the players perform. It's a players game.

LOL

 

Alomar may very well be the next manager of the Sox, but you will believe anything if a manager/player/ex player says it, wont you?

There will not be a new manager by the end of the week, according to Kenny Williams #whitesox #mlb

Martinez could leave the club early even if they make the playoffs but still this makes it seem like Sandy is the guy. I have no real problem with it, I'd prefer Martinez but Sandy seems like a solid choice. At least we'll know sooner rather than later.

Are you reading the "Not" in Rongey's tweet? If it was Alomar, that'd be done quick, other candidates would be reasons to wait.

Now this, my friends, is a revelation.

Then why even have a manager? Let Paulie make out the lineup, and Buehrle do pitching changes (if he comes back).

Not thrilled with Alomar. More of the same group think in an organization that needs a breath of fresh air.

I just listened to 17 minute Oz interview on whitesox.com and he was gracious.The more I think about this I am just sick over the fact KW won this war.

Become a Marlins fan if you love Ozzie so much. Otherwise, deal with reality. It's not going away.

Alomar has everything the Sox are probably looking for. They loved him as a future manager when he was on the team 3 or 4 times, so familiarity, he's well respected around the game and it would be his first managerial gig, so the price is right, plus not that it matters, I still think he has a place here.
