At this point what is firing him going to do? Cheese and Jake/Parker will quit as well because they have no chance at the head job and you are left with GAs because Rodeheaver with Baseball Ops is a Lemonis guy too. This is not a Cann situation where he stepped into a job with Cohen assts.Quote:

This ain't rocket science.Quote:

This is where I?m at now. No chance any one staff leads this team to a regional at this point. The hole is too big to climb out of.Quote:

If he is not getting the full time job.Quote:

Not another pass to lame duck skate the rest of this year.
Steve, do you know if Parker wants to be a head coach and is he capable and/or ready?Quote:

No problem, nearly everyone of us either played little league or had kids play little league, so we are woefully over-qualified to evaluate Croomonis and Staff ineptitude!Quote:
