I believe Gene Lamont was dismissed in the middle of the season to make room for the incomparable Terry Bevington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanne Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I want to say yes he's merely a placeholder....but you all know as well as I do they'll hang on to him until that rudder is going down into the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Padres just fired their manager. Here is their official statement: "I want to thank Andy for his tireless work and dedication to the Padres over the last four seasons," Preller said in the statement. "This was an incredibly difficult decision, but one we felt was necessary at this time to take our organization to the next level and expedite the process of bringing a championship to San Diego. Our search for a new manager will begin immediately." I wonder if the Sox will eventually do the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet Greg's house on it not happening. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuliusO1274 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) Frank and Ozzie were complaining about all the lineup changes in the previous post game show. I don't remember the exact numbers but I saw a stat showing the Sox only had the same line up a few times all season.

Not defending his lineup choices in how he structured the lineups, but it was damn near impossible for him to keep the same lineup all season due to injuries and players being moved in and out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBWSF Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 In todays Sun Times Renteria said the organization has to go outside and acquire some players for next season. He said that this will be a very important off season for the White Sox. It will be interesting how this plays out. I don't think they're going to spend a lot of money to sign free agents but we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradMc Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 The stronger the drum-beat regarding any type of cultural level type changes, the more the native New Yorker owner doubles-down. Renteria ain't going no-where. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
