Guillen Will Manage White Sox In 2011

Ozzie Guillen is all set to return in 2011 as manager of the White Sox, according to an Associated Press report.

Guillen is already under contract for next season with a team option for 2012, but there had been speculation he would leave to join another club.

Guillen said he had separate discussions Monday with White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf and GM Ken Williams.

?I?m very excited,? Guillen said before Monday night?s game against Boston. ?I want to be a White Sox for the rest of my life.?

Manny Unconcerned With Reputation

Manny Ramirez remains unconcerned with how people perceive him, even if they believe he doesn't care about the game.

"I don't know," Ramirez said of the perception. "I just want to play and go home. It doesn't mean I'm a bad guy."

Ramirez left the Dodgers under somewhat controversial circumstances, being ejected after the first pitch of a pinch hitting at bat.

"I don't need to clear up anything," Ramirez said. "Everywhere I go, my teammates like me."

Lillibridge Draws Ire For 'Halo' Interest

White Sox second baseman Brent Lillibridge has some important baseball games on the horizon, but he found time to wait for the midnight release of the new "Halo" on Monday.

"Most important night of the year Halo coming out at 12 tonight and yes I'm in a line to get it... Jokes please," Lillibridge tweeted.

His enthusiasm was not shared by teammate Mark Teahen.

"Brent, get to bed. Take Gavin, Thornton & Putz with you. Halo will survive the night without you," Teahen tweeted, referring to pitchers Gavin Floyd, Matt Thornton and J.J. Putz.

The White Sox host the Twins on Tuesday night and are six games behind in the American League Central.

"I did get to bed quite early so trust me can't wait for the big game tonight... #Halo is awesome!" he tweeted.
