The Cleveland Indians Have Done The Inevitable

The Cleveland Indians have fired manager Eric Wedge.

The Indians were one game away from the World Series in 2007. The Indians fell out of contention in 2008, and then traded away AL Cy Young Award Winner C.C. Sabathia.

In 2009,the Cleveland Indians were the runaway favorite for the AL Central with the new additions of Mark DeRosa and Kerry Wood, but the Indians fell out of contnetion again in 2009, and traded away AL Cy Young Award Winner Cliff Lee.

Indians fans have been calling for the firing of Wedge for a while now.

Bobby Cox Gets One Year Extension, Will Retire In 2010

Bobby Cox has agreed to a one year extension for the 2010 season.

Cox will retire following the 2010 season, where he will become a consultant to advise the Braves in baseball operations.

There was talk of both Bobby Cox hanging it up after this season and Chipper Jones retiring in 2010, but following this news, I expect Chipper to retire after the 2010 season.

I expect the Braves to fight long and hard to win one more division title, one more World Series title for Bobby Cox.

Bobby Cox has managed the Braves since 1990. Cox led Atlanta to fourteen straight postseason appearances and to the 1995 World Series Championship.

The Houston Astros Continue To Do The Wrong Things

The Houston Astros fired manager Cecil Cooper with thirteen games left in the season. I don't understand why they didn't wait until after the season to make this move. The Astros are an old team, with old players like Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt who are past their prime.

The Houston Astros could use a complete rebuilding. I do not think their owner, Drayton McLane, would allow that.

Perhaps Jeff Bagwell and Craig Biggio will return to the Astros with some kind of coaching job! I really would like to see "The Killer B's" with something more than a restaurant at Minute Maid Park.
