Ask Not For Whom The Bell Tolls. HE WAS FIRED
It will be interesting to see who Reds hire as Manager this off season. I know one Hall Of Famer who has wanted to be Reds Manager. Barry Larkin, and shortstops make good Managers. Catchers do, but so do shortstops. Hall Of Fame Barry Larkin might be a good influence on the players. He wanted the job when they gave it to Bell.
So Bell is Officially Fired. Hopefully more Wins with the next Manager.
Cooperstown Hall of Fame Barry Larkin really has wanted the managers job, and I don't see any reason why not to give him a chance. If they pass over Larkin, I hope he gives up on the Reds and goes on to higher things with another team. He was in the Front Office with Washington. If Barry Larkin wants to manage, The Reds or some team should give the Hall of Famer his chance. Barry knows Hitting, Defense, Base Running. He would need a good Pitching Coach. Johnny Bench would have made a good manager knowing hitting and pitchers as a catcher, but he didn't want the job. Barry Larkin does want the job. If Reds pass him over a second time, then Larkin needs to give up on Cincinnati, but is it really this hard for a great black player to get a managers job.
