The first managerial opening has been filled, and its a doozy. About a decade since the end of his last manager job, Tony La Russa is back in the game, having been hired as the White Sox to manage in 2021. This is not a huge surprise as he has been connected to this job after they fired Rick Renteria following the season. It is not exactly a hiring that has been met with a lot of praise, though. The White Sox are perceived as one of the most new-school teams in the league in terms of personalities, and La Russa doesn’t really jive with that notion.
