I wouldn't pin the struggles on him either, but he was known as the guru just like Jaramillo and give him crap to work with, look what happens. He went from the standard to a guy lobbying for work. Considering the White Sox want to concentrate on OBP from here on out, Jaramillo the guru, who only had 1 player with 160 AB in 2009 with an OBP higher than .340. The Rangers led the league in homers and struck out 200 times more than the White Sox. Let the Cubs pay him big bucks. If they have the same players, their offensive results will be the same. I heard how he will help Soriano. Soriano had his lowest OPS numbers under Rudy than he had under anyone since 2002 until this season.
According to Dave Kaplan on todays CTL he is going to the Cubs.
