ESPN is reporting the White Sox have come to terms with new Manager Rony TaLussa. 

"Rony may be a relative unknown in baseball circles, but he is just what this team needs in my opinion." - Chairman Jerry Reisnsorf

Too soon.  Then again as long as Tony is alive, it will be too soon.

Watching the Marlins game and they said that Schumaker’s mentor is Tony and that they speak once a week via phone.  

Hawk's one year as GM of the White Sox changed the careers of Tony La Russia, Dave Dombrowski and Bobby Bonilla.

That is some crazy butterfly effect.

I know nothing about the guy, but the resume seems good enough. Although “never being associated with the White Sox organization” is the clear #1 priority 

At least he’s likable and can learn on the job while the team is horrible.  Like a younger Renteria.

I don;t think it's going to be Schumaker.  I think he goes to a team that's closer to winning.  

I wonder if that’s why they first were like it’s 100% going to be an outside the organization hire to ok well consider Sizemore now.

Maybe but I think Sizemore has earned strong consideration.  He's made some dumb decisions which should be expected from a first time manager but the players play hard for him because they respect him and that seems to be more than half the battle these days.  If he is the guy they need to hire a strong bench coach to help him with in game decision making.

I thought it was dumb to say he wasn't going to be considered. Maybe there was a silent "unless he does exactly what we say".

I like Sizemore a lot.  At least he stays awake for the games.

Agreed.  These guys should play hard for him.  He was a better player then all of them so they should at least respect him.

Sizemore is still under contract for next season. If he’s not in the dugout as a coach, he’ll probably be in the front office. He’s someone the Sox should keep around based on how he got the team to play hard during the second half.
