Holy shit they actually hired someone that didn't have connections to the Sox and/or Reinsdorf?

We shall see

First time manager and young. But seems highly regarded

Why would he want to come to White Sox? Surely better job opportunities will be out there

It would be hard not to show improvement there, they could lose 100 games and still improve by 20 wins

Got hired on his birthday. Way to go.

Which means he’s set up to either fail, or set up for the manager who takes them further. Not an attractive spot for someone who has expectations.

It worked out for Brandon Hyde, of course the White Sox would need to do a great job of drafting to get there
