A major-league source confirmed suspicions Thursday that the White Sox have informed manager Jerry Manuel he will be replaced after the season. The source also said Manuel has given the news to all or most of his coaches. Manuel sidestepped the issue...

White Sox manager Jerry Manuel needed some time to find anything resembling a silver lining in this hurricane. "The good thing is we're healthy," he said. "Nobody got hurt." At least not physically. But if getting swept by the worst team in baseball...

As Cubs manager Dusty Baker sat in the sun-soaked visiting dugout at U.S. Cellular Field Sunday morning, someone asked how his team would react to a season-worst four-game losing streak. "We've got to ride it out," he said, working his ever-present...

If it's not broken, don't fix it. Who could begrudge Anaheim Angels general manager Bill Stoneman a restful winter? After all, the Angels' ultraimpressive run through the playoffs should not be viewed as the doing of the Rally Monkey or any other Disney-...

The White Sox won their third in a row Sunday with a 10-2 decision against the hapless Detroit Tigers. As was their pattern all weekend, the Sox did it in the way a cat plays with prey for a while, then swats it into oblivion when the game gets tiresome....

Normally, Bartolo Colon's approach to pitching is about as direct as it gets. He used a little more guile Sunday against the worst offense in the majors. Colon struck out a season-high nine in seven innings, earning his first victory for the White Sox...

No more Mr. Nice Guy. White Sox manager Jerry Manuel, at times criticized for a lack of visible passion, earned himself a standing ovation from many in the crowd of 22,714 Sunday when he managed to get himself ejected two batters into a 3-1 victory...
