Buzz: Coaches in more Trouble than Willie
Following last night’s game, Omar Minaya was peppered with questions from reporters on the current job status of Willie Randolph.
Minaya, on whether Randolph will be the team’s manager through the rest of the season, said:
“I can’t answer that. He is my manager today, and I have the right to evaluate him as we go along. Let me put it this way, he is always being evaluated…It’s a situation that I am constantly evaluating.”
In the Daily News, Adam Rubin writes that Randolph could survive the first round of firings, while citing a team insider as saying, “I think the coaches are in trouble. That may be the compromise for now.”
…the thing is, i’m not sure this is a compromise, but instead the best course of action…period…
According to Rubin, Minaya met with Randolph at length after Sunday’s doubleheader - after which the manager boarded the team bus on route to the airport.
