i can't think of anyone who would get more out of these guys.

 

 

lol i could.. manson,david koresh,L ron hubbard,Maharishi Mahesh Yogi,

Sun Myung Moon, im sure some of those guys could motivate this team much better.............i can name off a few more but i think you get the point.........

i would disagree with that.... i think he is a good manager.... my main reason for thinking this is that the players really connect with him.

OMG lol. I will leave it at that.

well hell... i will help you get your resume together.... i cant wait until you manage the team :rolleyes:

Another stupid post. Congrats. Someone get him some coffee too, lol.

ho ho.... but seriously.... lets deal within the framework of reallity..... who the hell is going to manage this team for the dough reinsdorf is paying?

 

the fact is... jerry works cheap.... who are you going to hire for the job in that payscale?

It isnt my job to hire anyone for the whitesox. It isnt my job to decide what he or anyone else gets paid. AS a fan, my opinion is JM is a HORRIBLE manager. End of story. His players think he is a fool, and the sox are totally underperforming, based on their record.

only a life-long sox fan can say we are under-performing when we are in first place late in august.... go ahead and blame the U.N. for this...

 

as for myself... i am really enjoying white sox baseball

LOL OMG, people are so................oh ill be nice. Ummm dude there are teams with similar talent 30 and 40 games over .500. WE have the 3 best starting pitchers in the division , all on our team. WE have the best offense in the divison. We are 1 1/2 games ahead of a team with NO talent. Un f***ing believable lol.

It doesn't matter if you win a division by one game or by 10 games. The result is the same :P

and it does not matter how many games you win the division by .... just win....

 

this team is in an excellent position to make the post season....

 

with what this team has gone through this year.... it may make them a better team in october

True. THat doesnt mean this team shouldnt have a 10 or 15 game lead at this point. With the additions Kw made, theres no comparison in the talent.

It IS the managers fault. He is the leader of the team. Its his job to motivate. He gets paid for RESULTS.

I can blame JM for being a complete assclown when it comes to his bullpen usage...and the fact that early he was using a different lineup everyday, and now won't change for the better( i.e. Rowand in CF vs. lefties)

OUCH.. :o

This board seems to have a quite adversarial tone tonight. Strange. If I didn't know any better, I'd have to say we were 20 games under .500 or so. :D

peace..... you have not convinced me that jerry is an idiot. and i have not convinced you that he is not.... f*** it....

 

go sox :cheers

The thing here is that both sides are right. Manuel is to blame for the absolutely putrid start. I have never seen a team more unprepared to start a season as we were. If you saw the KC series to open the year, they were Detroit bad. Popups being dropped, Carlos striking out when he thought he only had a two strike count, somebody else thought he struck out when he had a one strike count, jeez.

 

But that's ancient history now. For whatever reason (and I say it's Kenny Williams remaking the team) we are clicking on all cylinders. Enjoy it.

 

And moronacy is not a word.

no real problem keeping him.

 

I would've asked that he pitched only five innings, but he gave up one run, granted he had five walks, you have to give him the chance to pitch one more inning, just to see if he can get through an inning without his best stuff.

 

wasn't really a bad move.

Good post.

Sometimes you have to have a feel for how a guy is doing.

For those who watched the game ... was Cotts toast?

Did he appear to be done?

Or was he pitching well with the 80 pitches.

Is BMR right that he appeared to be done?

It wasnt as much that he appeared done, but that he kept getting out of jams and was bound to not get out of the next one.
