That being said, the Padres were terrible when McGwire was bench coach and we already have a hitting coach we like. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaRussa probably has more power than Hahn at this point. This will be very revealing as to whats going on. If its a TLR crony that's a really bad sign that the Hahn/analytics change is over. If its Zaleski (sp) id feel alot better that Hahn still has control and Jerry didn't totally hijack everything. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is Hahn at least still in charge of FA? This is such BS I'm so pissed. He put together a masterful rebuild for the most part. He deserves to run his ship.

I think Capra will be replaced. Maybe McEwing is the 3B coach and LaRussa brings in a bench coach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What really cracks me up is all this poor Rick Hahn crap. There are people in that organization who are really mad at him for throwing Renteria under the bus. He and made a power grab and Reinsdorf shut him down. It is his god damn team. Now they're saying Hahn is going to leave. Why. Because he has a bruised ego. Please. There's the door, Rick.

Being as RR himself stated he didn't care to use analytics as much as they(FO) would like and the reported tension in that I don't see how Hahn letting him go to try to find someone more willing to use analytics in real time (in your words a "yes man") is him reaching for power. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoYoIsMyHero 376 Posted October 29, 2020 I'm sorry but a GM firing a manager is not a power grab. That's utterly ridiculous. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I'm confused. I don't see how that's a power grab for firing Ricky. Which was well deserved and as you said agreed upon. He kinda threw Ricky under the bus after the Cubs game. With Cordero throwing at Contreras. Which led to RR and Cordero's ejection. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
