ozzie guillen Stories - Twinkie Town
Stage is set for changes
In a way, it's almost good that the White Sox offense failed to help John Danks and the bullpen during Wednesday's 11-inning, 2-1 loss. Had Matt Thornton and Jesse Crain been able to preserve the shutout, the story would've been Danks' triumphant return, a second straight series win inside the...
Nothing healthy about White Sox's respect for Twins
When the White Sox used the much-maligned solo homer to defeat the Minnesota Twins to win the AL Central back in 2008, I had hoped that would be the game the White Sox would point to when it came to any future problems with the Twins. Talking to my dad on Sunday night, he pointed further back when...
Guillen: I didn't say the things I said
While talking to reporters prior to Sunday's 13-4 loss to Toronto, Ozzie Guillen buried the lede. He held court on a variety of topics, but what he said toward the end is what everybody's talking about. "They'll only remember the 2005 team in 2020 when we come here in a wheelchair," Guillen said....
Angels Fans World Record Wrestling Mask Attempt is Tuesday
A press release sent by the Angels media relations does not explain away the season ticket holders who will re-enter the stadium three and four times (that would be me) for extra masks without the commensurate heads to be wearing said masks when the record will be broken. I assume the Guinness...
Milledge's DFA as predictable as it is strange
There's a good chance that the White Sox won't miss Lastings Milledge in one way or another, so I hesitate to make too big a deal out of their strange decision to designate him for assignment on Thursday morning. At the same time, it's really hard to figure out why it happened, regardless of...
Hush money: White Sox pick up Guillen's 2012 option
The first day of SoxFest stored a pleasant surprise for Ozzie Guillen, as the Sox picked up his option for 2012. On the same day, he launched OzzieGuillen.com. I doubt the Sox brass planned a tandem announcement, but it might as well have been a joint venture. Based on what Kenny Williams did this...
SoxFest questions fans should ask
At the end of this week, we'll reach an important mile marker in the passage of winter: SoxFest. Even for an out-of-area fan like me, I love SoxFest for a number of reasons. Most importantly, it usually forces the final contracts to get hammered out, since dried ink is required for players to...
Managerial Changes: There's Gonna Be A Flood
With all the discussion, analysis, speculation and outright guessing as to who will inhabit the Cubs' manager's office in 2011, I thought it would be useful to take a look at all 29 other teams and the status of their managerial positions. I believe that years from now, the 2010-11 offseason will...
White Sox Come Back Thanks To Royal Gaffes
Here's a list of days since August 4th in which the White Sox won and the Twins lost (when they didn't play each other): August 29th. That's it. That's the list of days in which the Sox picked up a full game on the Twins without the benefit of playing head-to-head. So when the out of town...
Chris Sale Brings Bling, Blank Innings
Chris Sale earned his first major league victory with 2.2 spotless innings of relief Monday. The win pushed the White Sox winning streak to 7, but thanks to Minnesota's 8-2 record over the last 10 they haven't really made up much ground. The con-Manny Sox have made a habit of coming back with...
