Wow.  A bit of a shock but I think it had to be done.  Who's up?

How about the architect of this s*** show, Breslow ?!!!

I’m getting a call and my phone says it’s a “C Breslow.”  Do I answer?

Just like when Bloom got the axe Cora should have too, and now I agree on Breslow.

The only shock I have is they read my post yesterday that said if they axe Cora, then they'd better fire his whole staff, too. None of them were helping young guys improve.

But Bailey -- Breslow's boy -- survived the purge. Nothing against him, but a new Manager should be able to recruit his own peeps. That's a wholesale turnover.

Now we still have remnants of an underachieving starting rotation.

If things don’t change, Breslow is likely next…

The new manager might be able to.  But they probably want SOME consistency for the interim manager (reportedly Chad Tracy)…

Thought the leash might be a little longer, but hey...

[Old Red]

Cora won over Bloom, and Breslow won over Cora. Does Bres have something on JH?🤔

[Bellhorn04]

Assistant hitting coach Dillon Lawson was also canned.  Interestingly, Varitek is being moved to another position in the organization.

[Bellhorn04]

Henry made a nice statement about Cora.

Tracy is just a fill-in until Pedroia's kid All-Star team is eliminated from their tournament.

And Pete Fatse was promoted to VP.

Just kidding.  He was canned.

So Cora is 100% likely to get another job.  Where will he land?

You are looking at it wrong, Bres does something Henry likes keeping him around for.

Like being the one to talk to Devers, because the manager wouldn't, and then trading the baby and dumping the salary for JH to pocket.

[alsoason]

Baseball a funny game, would have expected it have the beatdown last night, today they turned the tables and Cora gets to go play with his grandkids. I wonder if Big Papi wants to manage?

Not firing Fatse is a nasty bit of business though.

Someone shoulda talked to Devers many years before, and normally that is viewed and the manager's role not the GM.

I'm not sure why that's "gutter."

FO must like him. Maybe Lawson wasn’t on board with the plan?
