Lopes Fired:
Davey Lopes was fired today after the Brewers reportedly got off to their worst start ever. I wonder how many Brewer managers were saved by April? A few years ago, I looked at the Brewers won-lost record through May 15. For the life of the franchise, they were above .500 through May 15th, but well under .500 after that. I wonder how often the good start made management think they had something good going and that the losing was due more to luck or injury?
That's two managers fired in April. I wonder if that's some kind of record.
