The Wit And Wisdom of Ozzie Guillen

Book Description:

Whether as a longtime player for the White Sox or as the team’s World Series–winning manager, Ozzie Guillen has been the "go to" guy in the clubhouse for reporters seeking just the right quote to enliven their stories. Candid, controversial, and usually laced with humor, Guillen’s frank assessments of both friends and foes, as well as his steadfast willingness to explain his decision-making process regarding game strategy, makes him one of the game’s most popular figures. Now, with a World Series title and Manager of the Year accolades under his belt, more and more people are listening to what Guillen has to say.

And he has plenty to say, as you’ll discover in The Wit and Wisdom of Ozzie Guillen. Veteran sportswriter Brett Ballantini draws on his intimate rapport with the White Sox field general to bring readers inside the manager’s office, sharing with them thoughts, dreams, quips, and quotes from one of the most active minds—and mouths—in today’s game.
