many baseball people seem to believe francona will not be back to manage the #redsox. could end up being a mutual call.—

doesnt sound like #chisox would be legit landing spot for francona. folks think they may go younger—

The Tom Thibodeau route seems more probable than the big expensive name…
UPDATE: And,
If Francona becomes availalble I see him as #WhiteSox's first choice; only impediment would be cost.—
