idk if drastic.
Giants are now going all-in with analytics when they hired Zaidi. Kapler is supposedly an analytics manager, so it wouldn't be too drastic.
As of the rest of the current "contenders" field.
- I would think if the Nats 1) Drop the 1st WC and lose on the road in the WC game or 2) Nats don't even get one of the two WC spots, that Davey is fired.
- Counsel looks like he will survive even if Brews don't make it, considering Yelich is out for year.
- Maddon apparently is not favored by the FO and Epstein anymore. Surprising since he broke the curse I would have thought he'd have a job for life.
- I think Callaway has bought himself one more half season. I think if Mets struggle out the gate next year he'll be gone by June.
For the non-contenders remaining:
- Don't see Colorado firing Bud Black a year removed from making playoffs.
- Mattingly is interesting. He and Jeter have a connection which is why he got hired. Not sure Jeter would fire him.
- Hurdle I think is gone in Pitt.
In the AL, I think Yost is going to call it quits this offseason or next, since he knows the Royals aren't going to compete anytime soon. Don't care enough for the other teams in the AL.
