Former Bulls GM Jerry Krause and White Sox board chairman Jerry Reinsdorf could only stay broken up for so long.
During his pre-game meeting with the media before Monday's season-opener against Cleveland, manager Ozzie Guillen - never one to keep secrets - confirmed that the club had brought Krause on as a scout, with an emphasis on handling those duties as far as improving the influx of Latin players.
It came with a ringing endorsement from Guillen.
"I hope he finds another Ozzie Guillen,'' the seventh-year skipper insisted.
After all, it was Krause who found the first Ozzie Guillen, responsible for adding the likes of Guillen in a trade with San Diego, as well as recommending then-first baseman Greg Walker.
"He's a very smart man,'' Guillen said. "He gambled by trading for me and he won. I think this man is a very, very brilliant guy. He's a great baseball person.''
