The rebuilding process, PowerPoint or not, was almost certain to cause unrest. But the Reds recent free fall has dialed up the decibel level on calls to fire Bryan Price. The Atlanta Braves sacked their manager Fredi Gonzalez last week. So it’s no surprise the vultures have flown north and are circling 100 Joe Nuxhall Way. With baseball president Walt Jocketty having announced his intention to retire at the end of the season, Price becomes a convenient target.
To be clear, the case for letting Bryan Price go at the end of the season, also the end of his contract, is pretty strong.
