    I'm sorry but a GM firing a manager is not a power grab. That's utterly ridiculous.

    If I’m Hahn, I’m pushing to keep Menechino, Coolbaugh, & Hasler in their current roles.  I’d also be pushing for Zaleski as pitching coach and a younger guy of my choice as bench coach and future

Descriptive.

No, it wouldn't. Because I misspelled the man's name.

That being said, the Padres were terrible when McGwire was bench coach and we already have a hitting coach we like.

So if it's Jirschele and Zaleski, do people feel better?

That would make me feel a little better about it actually

I'm betting that Hahn isn't going to be able to pick LaRussa's pitching coach. 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.

Dammit.

Can you let us know whats going on in the building now? 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. WTF is their problem

Not the slam dunk I thought it would be but LaRussa said he values continuity so I hope there's a chance he stays.  I think Capra will be replaced.  Maybe McEwing is the 3B coach and LaRussa brings in a bench coach.

Jose Canseco for hitting coach, that's all i know. Mark Mcgwire bench coach

No, Canseco is strength and conditioning.  ?

It's a shit show but that's ok.  They'll get over it.  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.

So do they really think Rick is going to leave?

Honest question, where did Hahn throw RR under the bus? by rightfully firing him?

Hahn was part of the decision making so he rightfully fired him for doing what they all agreed was the best plan of action?

No chance

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.

I'm sorry but a GM firing a manager is not a power grab. That's utterly ridiculous.

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.

He wanted to hire Hinch so he would have control over him and complete control of the dugout.  That's the power play. 

I think he replaces all the coaches except Mcewing. He will clean house.

Does Jirschele have any realistic chance?
