Tigers Fire Avila

Finally

What did he do wrong?

15 games behind, bad losing percentage, lack of player confidence maybe. Perhaps they want a clean break going into the offseason. Also, the team can't fire Hinch just after hiring him a year ago.

Hinch will prob have a lot of say in the next hire and have more say on team building.

A very good point.

The last time I checked he was still employed.

Someone has to "regulate" the supply of Night Train Express in Chicago. Might as well be him...

I can't say he made a lot of bad moves, but they really didn't work out. I do like Hinch, it is time to move on from Avila.
