Theo would require some ownership stake, which is an interesting angle. Although I'd prefer someone like Chernoff but doubt he'd leave for the Sox. Expand Chernoff would be a great hire, but no way they can land him before the end of the season. Has to be a true free agent candidate.

Very interested parties at that time were George Lucas and his wife. Also heard Shad Khan and Tony Khan from Jacksonville Jags had interest. Didn't think too much of it at the time, but today is interesting. Expand Chicago native Mellody Hobson seems the one driving that interest much more than George...

Expand It’s not earth shaking performance, but it’s a helluva lot better than what we’ve been getting. That org has some clear major restrictions on it that wouldn’t be present here, a combination of gamblers moves and good pitching development would work decently well here and probably leave a regularly competitive team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Dayton Moore at least would rule out of the reason we suck is because the players have been jacking off too much.

He said he thought they put together good players but not a good team. Expand Ozzie just teased during the game that he's going to have a lot to say during the post-game, so stay tuned! Can we stop all the JR selling the team nonsense? There is absolutely no reason for his family to sell the team before he passes on for tax reasons, the kids (and the fans) are going to have to wait ... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t clean house only to hire in house. Especially with a guy that has been questionable in his job at best. Ultimately JR made this decision , but someone convinced him this was the move to make. I wonder who it was. Other investors? Hawk? LaRussa? His son? Steve Stone? It was someone.

So I’m not going to worry about any of these so and so is safe. With that said - this is White Sox so I have about 5 percent hesitation that they do go to Getz. With that said - if it was Getz I think they would have kept Kenny and punted HAhn and than announced some transition plan for Kenny. I expect outside hire - whether they are good, heck if I know, but shock me Jerry and write a blank check to Epstein. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
