Default Narron fired as Reds manager

Narron fired as Reds manager after loss to Cardinals

CINCINNATI -- Manager Jerry Narron was fired Sunday night by the Cincinnati Reds, who raised their payroll and their expectations in the offseason only to find themselves with the worst record in the major leagues.

The Reds became the second team to change managers Sunday. Earlier in the day, Seattle's Mike Hargrove resigned.

The move came a few hours after an 11-7 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals that left the Reds at 31-51, the worst record in the majors.

Ah man you beat me to my story...alright I don't get news as fast over here. hah Thanks for looking out though...I was surprised they actually got rid of him. I know that it's real easy to blame problems on the manager but I look for some major changes all around. We'll see what ol' Pete Mackanin will change when he gets in there...maybe those Dunn/Griffey trades aren't to far off? Or maybe the bullpen will be tweaked just the right tune after this all-star break that we start playing on the level we all know we can. Arroyo can be getting a lot of the help he needs so that Harang isn't pulling all the weight. Lohse has a great arm and could have a lot more wins than he does...and of course Homer Bailey is a great new talent that we can't afford to lose. We have some great guys in the bullpen like Weathers, Coutlangus, and Coffey (to name a few) I really do hope that this was a good move on our part...I actually liked Narron but I'm all about the team moving forward.
