00:00The Phillies have fired their manager, Rob Thompson.
00:03It's funny.
00:03Okay.
00:03They're in the same spot.
00:05Their team's not doing well.
00:06Don Mattingly is the interim manager.
00:07Okay.
00:08But so we said this yesterday.
00:12Cora might be Jim Montgomery,
00:13where Cora was trying to get fired because he had a job lined up.
00:17Like he was, we said this a lot.
00:19He's acting like a guy who wants to get fired.
00:21Why would you keep telling everybody you're happy and you're good?
00:24Running around with thumbs up pictures in the North End.
00:28And, you know, running around with all these other coaches
00:31who will probably go with you to your next destination.
00:33Everybody's got big smiles on their face.
00:35Why would you carry on that way unless you already had your next job lined up
00:38with your former GM?
00:39One of the few you didn't try to get fired.
00:41Although he did get fired while you were here.
00:45So if he winds up going to Philly, that looks bad for Cora.
00:49I think people will say that looks bad for the Red Sox.
00:51That looks bad to Cora.
00:52That looks like Cora was openly campaigning to get fired,
00:55trying to get himself fired.
00:57Five days later, Jim Montgomery was hired with the Blues.
01:00Five days later, he didn't know that was about to happen.
01:04And so Jim Montgomery was acting a certain way.
01:06He got fired.
01:07He got the Blues job.
01:08And I thought that was a bad look for Montgomery.
01:11Same thing.
01:12If this is what's happening.
01:13Yeah.
01:14And the Phillies waited two days to blow out their manager
01:16and Cora goes there five days later or whatever.
01:18Yeah.
01:19While he's on the Jumbotron.
01:19I don't know if there's a lot of Cora defenders here.
01:21They'll be like, good signing by Dombrowski.
01:23When they put him on the Jumbotron tonight,
01:25he's just going to put on a Phillies hat?
01:26Like he's choosing a college?
01:28Like he's high school All-American?
01:29That'd be fun.
01:30They should.
01:31They might.
01:32But okay.
01:32I don't think that's a bad look for the Red Sox.
01:34I think that's a bad look for him.
01:35Their manager was trying to get his next job while he was working here?
01:38Yeah.
01:39That's Bill Parcells level stuff is what that is.
01:41I don't know.
01:41I don't know.
01:41Now, we'll talk�� see the same bullshit guidecipe.
