They're gonna wait until the investigation is over to make the official announcement.

 

[Voight]

Same deal as Houston, bring in a highly respected veteran guy to restore order.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Not a terribly exciting hire

 

[John Price]

It's a bland hire. He was manager of the Brewers and didn't do much there.

Red Sox went from champions to chumps mighty fast.

Seems like a 2-3 year place holder

Red Sox went from champions to chumps mighty fast.

Yeah but when they start winning again I guess you'll probably be jumping on the bandwagon.

Seems like a 2-3 year place holder

More like a 1-year place holder. A new full-time manager probably doesn’t want to sign on now knowing the full details of what’s to come. Just punting until next year.
