The Boston Red Sox began their offseason on Monday by firing pitching coach Dave Bush and third base coach Carlos Febles. Bush said that there’s no one to blame for his firing but himself.
“The feedback was ultimately that we just didn’t perform well enough from the mound,” Bush told The Boston Globe’s Alex Speier. “As the pitching coach, that falls under my responsibility. I wouldn’t put too much more into it than that.”
Bush was hired at the end of the 2019 season, and his four years in the role ties him with John Farrell for most seasons spent as pitching coach since the turn of the century according to Speier.
