Guillen Gets Extension

I find this hard to believe. The guy is a PR nightmare not to mention a time bomb waiting to explode. I thought he'd surely be fired after this year. (shrug)

From the AP: White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen and the team agreed Tuesday to a contract extension through the 2012 season.

Well, they've had such success this year, it was an easy decision I'm sure.

Guillen is a jerk. The SOX can have him.

Re: Guillen Gets Extension

Interesting, word was if LaRussa left St. Louis he'd likely end up with the Sox. The Reds might have just moved up a spot on his ladder if he moves.

Proof that the average manager makes little difference in the W-L record of the team.
