Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen suspended two games

Manager of the Chicago White Sox Ozzie Guillen was suspended two games and fined for his actions, including tweeting over the loss of Wednesday for the New York Yankees.

Guillen was originally a fine of $50,000, but after further discussion with the major League Baseball, he was reduced to $20,000, according to a source of major league. Guillen does plan to fight the suspension.

Guillen was ejected for arguing with plate umpire Todd Tichenor on a third strike called on Paul Konerko. Shortly after the ejection, Guillen tweeted: "it will cost me lots of money, it is patetic [sic]". "" A second message appears soon: "Today a tough guy show up at yankee stadium." He apparently was referring to Tichenor.

According to the rules of the MLB, all the messages of social media must cease 30 minutes before the first launch, and they can resume after the match at the discretion of the individual club. Getting ejected is not a departure from the rules.

"When I spoke to [MLB], I said, ' What do you want to tell me?". It's my fault. This is my problem, "Guillen said Friday. "I regret it." Step at this time. The only thing I regret is that I will leave the team by itself for two days. But [tweeting] something, I should not do during the game. ?

Guillen will serve the suspension during the games, Friday and Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles.

"At first they were a little confused because they thought that I am taking advantage of the umpire that he was a child," Guillen said. "I knew who he was." I have spoken to their comments exactly step by step what has happened and they have a little better understand my point... When I take a punishment, I consider to be a man. ?

Vice President of baseball operations that Peter Woodfork confirmed Thursday the major League Baseball MLB does not have to deal with a player, coach or a manager sends messages of social media, while a game was still in play, and no there was no standard policy on the way to the action of the discipline.

Guillen's case was reviewed by the staff led by the new Executive Vice President of baseball operations Joe Torre.

White Sox Ken Williams General Manager said that he is not surprised by the decision to suspend Guillen.

"I don't particularly understand the whole thing social media", said Williams. "I understand how it can work for you at times, but I certainly see more traps." I Don't get it. I do not why people would want all their business and their comings and goings say all the time, but perhaps I am simply outdated. ?

Williams said he subscribed to the League and said that he knew that it was a question of not letting uncontrollable social media use on baseball.

"They are quite reason of manipulation in the manner they did," said Williams. "If I am sitting in the Chair of Joe Torre, I would make the same decision that there just - and it is with the State of mind that it is in the best interest of baseball."

"Today, from the point of view, selfish, sitting here as the general manager of White Sox in Chicago, well, I'd have my manager to manage the game Friday night."

It is not the first time Twitter has obtained a member of the family Guillen ranging with the White Sox. Son of Guillen, Oney, Department of the Scouting team left after some positions criticized front office in Spring Training 2010. The episode led to friction between Guillen season long, and Williams had been rafistolés.

Guillen has had numerous explosions during his career, which began in 2004. Among his targets were the star of the Yankees Alex Rodriguez, the umpire Hunter Wendelstedt and his former teammate Magglio Ordonez, who currently plays for the Detroit Tigers.

Guillen ordered the formation of sensitivity in 2006 after former sports columnist Jay Mariotti Chicago a derorgatory name.

He apologized for Rodriguez for comments he made in a Sports Illustrated article in which he criticized baseball star of the Yankees of dithering on the choice of countries for the World Baseball Classic, and it was a hyprocite.

In his first season as Manager, Guillen called Wendelstedt a liar. Later in the season, sarcastic Guillen called Buck Showalter, then with the Texas Rangers, as the best manager in the history of baseball and the guy who invented the game - all after knowledge of the Guillen interviewed Showalter rules.

Guillen also exploded on a filled rant of profanity against Ordonez, fellow Venezuelan who leaves White Sox and joined the Tigers. Guillen then another tirade after that a mis radio host in doubt its line up on the air.

Guillen said that he still tweet, simply not during the games.

"It is the first time that I have never, never, never, never tweet on baseball," said Guillen. "And look what happened." Well, I have learned a lesson. Will I still tweet? Hell Yes. This is my private life. ?
