Jose Abreu Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 McEwing was horrible at sending/holding runners. Hope this guy is better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Title is wrong. Capra is new 3B coach. Hasler is new bullpen coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RegionSox Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 So why would the director of player development move to third base coach? Seems very puzzling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSox Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Practically the same staff Ventura had in here was exactly my worry. Same s***, different year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 So Bobby Thigpen quit? Fired? Different role in the organization? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisox05 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Both hitting instructors Todd Steverson and Greg Sparks will return to Sox coaching staff as well. https://twitter.com/MLBBruceLevine/status/786950022902509568 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisox05 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 White Sox promote Joe McEwing to bench coach, confirm return of pitching coach Cooper, hitting coach Steverson https://t.co/EbY5brNt04 https://t.co/B6CaHmHogT https://twitter.com/670TheScore/status/786952292591398913 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I'm heartbroken. McEwing was my favorite 3rd base coach since Jeff Cox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Wait, I thought Capra was supposed to turn around the farm system. WTF Jerry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 14, 2016 -> 10:39 AM) Status quo To me, it's another indication they aren't rebuilding. The rotation will be Sale, Quintana, Rodon, Gonzalez, and Shields...and they'll find a way to not make the playoffs again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get ready for year 3 of the infamous KW three-year phantom plan of failure. No direction, No accountability, No future. My favorite team sucks and is run by a bunch of clowns. #FireHahn, #FireKenny #SellTheTeamJerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems very puzzling. That makes no sense to me. Why make a scout a coach? And a very important scout at that. Scouts and coaches are not interchangeable.

Dunt Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 It's amazing that this organizational seemingly makes the wrong choice at every turn. Common sense does not exist on the south side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouts and coaches are not interchangeable. My guess is that they feel they need more of this on the day to day managing of the team and preparing for games/opponents. I kind of like this move. I like the McEwing move as well I always thought he was a good baseball mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
