Robin Ventura: More than White Sox's anti-Ozzie - MLB - Yahoo! Sports

Pretty good read. I think Ventura will do pretty well in the long run for the Sox.

gotta give him that first year

Anti-Ozzie sounds perfect.

 

[cubsneedmiracle]

At least he probably won't be on the twitter

 

[Rice Cube]

He should be a serviceable manager.

How soon before meatheads bash him for not being passionate/fiery due to his laid back California style?

1-2 months.

think positive, at least it'll take away the 20 Greg Walker phone calls per post-game.

The Sox are totally going to miss that man's work ethic. Not a harder worker in the league.

Or, if he is, we'll be able to understand him at least.

Change we all can believe in.

I think Ventura will be a pretty good manager. Unfortunately, if the Sox have a bad season he might get blamed.

I blame Kenny.

 

[TheChicagoFan]

I blame Kenny.

I would too. But some were saying that they would blame Ventura if the season went wrong. I totally disagree with that. Ventura can't work miracles with nothing and no manager experience.

 

[cubsneedmiracle]

KW isn't putting him in a great place to start.. IMO

 

[TheChicagoFan]

Exactly. Giving him crap to work with. I say that anything positive he does shows how good he can be in the future.

lol team isn't crap, guys.

You're right. I've been really impressed with the offense so far in spring training. Rios and Dunn look to have a much better approach this year. Beckham as well. I'm excited to see them this year.
