CHICAGO -- Ozzie Guillen walked away from the Chicago White Sox on Monday after being unable to secure a contract extension, and he apparently is walking into a new job managing the Florida Marlins. Guillen's quest for a new deal from the White Sox was denied, so the talkative, sometimes outrageous and always colorful manager asked to be released from his current contract. That request was granted. Source:ESPN
has there ever in modern times been an instance where a manager has been traded for players. btw, Adam Dunn will become the second player ever to have more strikeouts (177) than batting average (.159). To avoid this he would have to go 9/9 tomorrow. Currently in an 0-23 slump with 13 k's.
Yes, there has. In 03 the Devil Rays(something about Florida?) traded Randy Winn to the Mariners for "Sweet" Lou Piniella. And as for the Marlins. I CAN'T WAIT to see Ozzie in his rainbow uniform!! or seem to be the 2 images I've seen. STOKED to see that...*sarcasm*
