August 20, 201511 yr 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.
August 20, 201511 yr The reds issues are not because of Price. Until there is new ownership, Tony Larussa, Brian Price, Harvey the rabbit, one in the same.

August 20, 201511 yr If people can't spell his name right after 2 years on the job then he needs to be let go. :lol2:
August 20, 201511 yr 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.

August 20, 201511 yr Didn't hear about an ownership issue when they were contenders for the last 5 years. When were they contenders?
August 20, 201511 yr Thats when they choked against the Giants right? Yes. The year Cueto got hurt in Game 1.

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.
August 20, 201511 yr Couldn't care less who manages. I want guys that can hit, field and pitch. This team would make Sparky look like a schmuck.
August 20, 201511 yr 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.
