The A’s fired Ken Macha today after the Tigers swept them in the ALCS. Macha had a pretty solid record in his four years with the A’s (368-280) and he did take the A’s further in the playoffs then any A’s team under Billy Beane although it looka like Macha and Beane never connected. Lary Dierker would be an interesting choice for the A’s although he hasn’t been on anyone’s radar in a while.
I’m sorry to see him go but I guess its the name of the game…
