truthbtold Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 IMO he's been a disappointment as a manager. Management got rid of Dusty Baker because he was not able to move past first round of playoffs. Price has not came close to post season since his tenure as manager.

UKMustangFan Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I do not think he'll be back next season, so the rest of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plantmanky Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 The reds issues are not because of Price. Until there is new ownership, Tony Larussa, Brian Price, Harvey the rabbit, one in the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't hear about an ownership issue when they were contenders for the last 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelCrazy Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I wouldn't mind him sticking around for next season. The Reds have a lot of young pitching, and Price is well-equipped to develop it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you. I was thinking one more year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice of Reason Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I wouldn't mind him sticking around for next season. The Reds have a lot of young pitching, and Price is well-equipped to develop it. This is what I say also. I always am surprised by how much people worry about the manager in baseball. It is always about the talent first. Even then, stuff happens. Many consider Bruce Bochy one of the top managers in baseball. He is barely a .500 manager for his career. Ten seasons his teams have posted a losing record. Eight of those ten he was 10 games or more under .500. Bottom line - the Reds don't have the talent right now and they probably won't have enough next year either. Price, Bochy, Sparky, whoever is not winning a World Series next year with the Reds roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKY Bandit Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Couldn't care less who manages. I want guys that can hit, field and pitch. This team would make Sparky look like a schmuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOOGY Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 He needs to be here for these young pitchers next year, but after that I really don't want him. He's in way over his head to be a manager, but I'd sacrifice one more season if he can get the pitchers some good coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
