February 11, 201610 yr Ozzie is managing the Venzuela team. Does anyone think this is a move to get him back on the Sox when Ventura is fired/contract not renewed at the end of this season?

February 11, 201610 yr Ozzie is disengaged. One of the things that got him fired in Miami was Cora was doing all of the work. Ozzie was busy with twitter and whatever else. He would spend the majority of game days holed up in his office doing nothing. I was watching a bit of the Caribbean Series the other day and Ozzie was the color man. He harldy ever said anything, and every time they went to the booth, Ozzie was scrambling to take off his glasses and put his phone down. Like Ditka, he bought his hype, and is now mailing it in. I thought maybe he could be a coach again, but I have re-considered. He is still the post WS champion Ozzie. Edited February 11, 201610 yr by Dick Allen

The Sox have Renteria to fall back on if something happens with Robin.
February 11, 201610 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 11, 2016 -> 08:19 AM) No. He napalmed the bridge. I think Ozzie Jr. blasted Hahn last summer for no apparent reason, and blasted the White Sox for not making a huge deal out of Ozzie making some HOF. Ozzie isn't coming back. They aren't putting up with the Guillen boys and the twitter.

Does anyone think this is a move to get him back on the Sox when Ventura is fired/contract not renewed at the end of this season? Oh yes. That's clearly what is happening. The Daily Nutjob has reported that the Venezuelan team actually called JR to see what he wanted them to do before making their management decision.
February 11, 201610 yr No way. There's a reason he had one managing opportunity after his time in Chicago and none since.
February 11, 201610 yr Just a clarification: Ozzie is managing a Venezuelan club, not the Venezuelan national team.
