Just read the ESPN article and it looks like tonight is his last game. White Sox are gonna regret this one, he had an ability to take the heat off of his team and place it on himself, which benefits the team in the long run.

While you speak the truth, Blade, he was still a loose cannon and I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did...and was able to walk away rather than get fired.

I'm surprised too. I watched a piece on him a few weeks ago though, how Williams and the owner said they knew they'd have to deal with his mouth when he came, but they could handle it and wouldn't fire him over that.

Is he managing with the Marlins or front office or what?

I hope we have diplomatic relations with the country that ball lands in.

Speculation is that he's going to the Florida Marlins...

I know it's speculation, but we are talking as a manager still?

Certainly not as a player...

Yes, because I thought he was going to be a player.

I liked Ozzie as a player, before I had to listen to him very much. Well, we'll see how they like him in Florida. The Latino connection makes sense, but the front office will need thick skins.
