It’s disappointing that the only candidates interviewed from outside the organization were old associates of John Hart. No Dave Martinez interview. Or Torey Lovullo. And no one outside the box, like an Alex Cora or even Mark DeRosa.
Terry Pendleton, Eddie Perez and Bo Porter were interviewed but Hart now says they won’t be selected because that wouldn’t be fair to Brian Snitker? Then why interview them? TP and Eddie deserve better.
Most baseball people have good things to say about Black. The again, we were led to believe Fredi was well-respected within the game when the Braves hired him in 2011.
