00:00Bud Black in his ninth year in Colorado as the winningest manager in franchise history 554 wins
00:08fired yesterday by the Rockies amid a dismal and historically bad start for Colorado DRS we
00:17talked about Derek Shelton getting canned by the Pirates late last week kind of a scapegoat for it
00:22it kind of seems that is the same story for Bud Black here in Denver yeah Dave Roberts was quoted
00:29yesterday saying I don't think Casey Stengel could change the outcome of that ball club that's not the
00:32manager's fault and he's absolutely right so let's understand in in a one-week process where we started
00:38the season just about a month ago uh Pittsburgh hey manager making a move man we need better idea
00:43and he goes yeah you give me the worst lineup in baseball what am I supposed to do same thing out
00:48in Colorado hey man gotta let you go maybe another manager gets in here changes things up no the
00:52players need to change things up in the ownership group and the general manager need to change things
00:56up but we understand in the professional business you are hired to be fired you got nine years out
01:01of there the guy in Pittsburgh what five to six years as well nothing was going to change just enjoy
01:06your paycheck you know it's never going to turn into big wins for you and then you'll be let go as
01:11the scapegoat like hey it was your fault not the ownership of the general manager's fault that built that
01:15horrendous baseball team around for you to coach them
