All Of Baseball Predicting Who Will Be The Next Manager To Go

So now that the Toronto Blue Jays have fired manager Charlie Montoyo, all eyes around baseball are looking around as to who will be the next manager fired. And they're all looking in one direction.

Charlie Montoyo, Joe Maddon and Joe Girardi all being fired before Tony La Russa when the White Sox are below .500 in a crappy division on July 13th is nothing short of mind boggling

Can’t say I had Charlie Montoyo getting fired before Tony La Russa in my bets.

The failed Tony La Russa experiment is nearing its end.

77-year-old Tony La Russa has the backing of Chicago White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf, but not many others. On Chicago sports radio 670 The Score today, La Russa's in-game managing was been called "managerial malpractice."

Tony La Russa's decisions are "managerial malpractice," an angry @LaurenceWHolmes says.

In the New York Post on Tuesday came details of the "murmurs of 'unrest, cliques and [a] lack of player leadership' inside the White Sox clubhouse that have spread like wildfire across the league." 

Bob Nightengale of USA Today says "guys are complaining about Tony La Russa, guys complain about the front office and things like that. But when it comes down to it, everybody is saying there’s really no leadership in that clubhouse." That just might be a manager's job. 

La Russa's bizarre in-game decisions have been chronicled here, and MLB Insider Jon Heyman destroyed him in print recently. 

How long La Russa can hold on to his post is the big question in baseball now. The White Sox continue to flounder around in 3rd place, three games under .500, in the worst division in baseball. Most observers would say it's only a matter of time. 

But most observers aren't team owner Jerry Reinsdorf.
