Bud Black was just fired.

[Tyler]

Relieved of his duties today.

 

I'll take him.

[Angel Oracle]

The managerial carousel starts up.

Fire butcher

Never mind, just saw Shane's thread.

They aren't that far back. He always had crappy teams and had them playing above their heads the 2nd half. He finaly has a decent team and not even given a full season chance.

bud black for pitching coach

 

butcher for sleep coach.  

 

Frankly, Butcher has earned his keep.  

 

We need someone to do an exorcism on Joyce, Cron, and Iannetta.

Bring back the dream team!!!

There's probably not enough Joboo's in the entire world to help with that. 

[Second Base]

Please do whatever it is necessary to bring this guy back into this organization. 

[Jobu]

Or enough chickens.

[Adam]

The Padres are so lame

[Jobu]

Special Assistant to the GM until we can find an on field position. He still might have his pick of openings in the off-season.

[Richard]

Are we getting the band back together?

I can't really fault Black here. He's a victim of unrealistic expectation. I pegged them for about 83 wins at the start of the season.

Interesting contrast

 

Padres, high expectations, average payroll, average performance: fire manager

 

Angels, high expectations, top 10 payroll, average performance: tip the cap/turn the page

and the Padres haven't been successful for two decades.

Okay so what now?  How do the Angels get him back? Does he only want to be a manager? Would he come back as pitching coach? All signs are pointing to Scioscia being our manager until he eats one too many spaghetti bowls so I hope Black is okay with playing second fiddle. Get Bud Black back ASAP!!

Dodgers trade Corey Seager and Alex Guerrero to Angels for El Catorce (aka Lasorda Jr).

Bring back Bud Black as manager, hire Roenicke, fire DiScar, and dump Butcher.

while i don't think the padres are a playoff roster, bud black wasn't helping the team get there. he makes a lot of in game decisions that are beyond questionable.
