Buehrle>Wood Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 – The Chicago White Sox are conducting a series of internal interviews to determine whether dramatic changes are needed inside the front office or the coaching staff. This has been one of the most disappointing and painful seasons in chairman Jerry Reinsdorf’s tenure. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2023/08/20/baseball-movies-get-inspirational-boost-from-i-can-the-hill/70635811007/ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think er need to fire you? The funny thing is no one will say they need to be fired, but others know something has to change so they will have to blame someone. So there probably will be a token firing with everyone remaining knowing so.eone is willing to stab them in theback to save their cushy job. If you don't know what's wrong , bringi someone from the outside abd pay them to conduct these interviews and provide a report. And act on the report.

reiks12 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 This is PR. It is coming from Bob who gets his orders from Jerry himself. Its going to calm the fanbase, another 'carrot on the stick' approach by Jerry. Get everyone thinking change is coming when it most certainly is not. 2 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 So if this was leaked to Nightengale, that means KW or Reinsdorf right? And while I will leave the other jokes to y’all - why exactly didn’t they do these in June, prior to the draft and trade deadline? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Malarkey. Everything wrong with the Sox is on JR. Treat the drafting and development of young players with the money and scouting and coaches it has deserved forever. That is all on JR. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I would only take this seriously if they brought in a proper baseball exec (like an Epstein) and that new exec would be doing the interviewing. This could be a genuine effort, but I’m also still waiting for Elisha Cuthbert to return my email from 15 years ago to ask her out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a zinger thrown in about former White Sox Union rep Lucas Giolito. USA Today is a fitting place for Bob to "work", then again so is the White Sox for all of Jerry's cronies, and Hahn's Michigan cronies. Hope Brooks Boyer sells 0 season tickets beyond corporate sponsors forced to buy them. Insert flaccid arrow and kickbacks to Jerry.

DirtySox Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Normally this would make me excited, but what are the chances this is done correctly? What are the chances they bring in someone outside of their insular clown cabal? Real change needs to start at the absolute top if they want to even begin to approach a semblance of a modern day baseball organization. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most important thing is to get Hahn/Haber out of the building. Literally everything will change when those idiots are gone. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Internal Interviews Kenny "JR, I could of done a better job than this Rick guy. There are plenty of former Indians or players I coveted in the 2010's that are still bouncing around. We can reload with that and make a run. And if we need a player we have this new farm system to trade away from. I can get some major leaguers for these guys. Put me back in charge" TLR "Jerry, huh. Meh, You need to get more ex-cardinals on the payroll. If we picked up a certain ex-cardinal manager instead of this KC guy we win the division. My analytics guy and vet says we can do better with the players we have. He did the computations on his calculator" Getz "Lets get more Royals players. We can do this on a cheaper payroll and hopefully we can get it right for once" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
