By all accounts he seemed fine, or at least normal, up until about an hour before the game. This sounds a lot more like sudden chest/internal pain. Pretty sure they don't.

He took the steps needed to get the team going again, including showing his dads pals the door. Home run on this one! I've have been banging this drum hard!. Let Michael run it and clean house completely! This includes not only Jerry's pals, but all FO, farm system management, manager, coaches and all medical, training and strength staff members!

The Kids Can Play Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Great time to step down and re-retire for medical reasons and to deflect the other obvious reasons you need to be really fired! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 The way it was phrased, I don't think it was Covid, and I don't know why they would have him at the park and then leave if it was something planned. My guess is he either had some chest pains and they were checking on a possible heart attack or perhaps he had symptoms of a stroke. The press release makes it sound like they didn't expect him back any time soon. Hopefully never, but if something is wrong, I do hope he recovers.

Allow him to take a front office job with "less pressure". However, if he did have some sort of sudden health event, I do hope he recovers...and then retires. Same here. It also generates sympathy. The life of a major leagues has to take its toll on someone this age if they don't condition for it. We are also talking about a guy who got a DUI in his 70s. Maybe consuming a lot of alcohol is catching up. Last night Cairo managed just like LaRussa. They need to go outside this organization. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worry of course is that they'll have another sham search having already decided far in advance Cairo is getting the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they give Cairo the job permanently? He's a tony guy, has no ties to the organization, isn't a JR buddy and certainly wouldn't be Hahn's choice. I think its fair to have concerns about the Sox not doing their full due diligence on a new manager (if we get one), but I highly doubt they just had the job to Cairo if TLR "steps down" or is "promoted".

Don't see how Renteria is relevant at this point. Again, don't really see any good reason they Sox would hand Cairo the job short of the people just basically thinking they'll make the dumbest decision possible. I get it, but I think Jirschele or even Pierzynski are more likely than Cairo if we actually do get a new manager. That all said, while Cairo would be a poor hire, I'd prefer him 10000000000000000x to TLR. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s obvious that they need a new voice. Have real interviews with experienced major league managers and pick the best one regardless of his ties (or lack thereof) to the White Sox.
