More firings

As Joe Janish noted, this was buried at the bottom of Adam Rubin’s game story from Sunday, but it’s a fairly big deal.

Both Mako Oliveras and Julio Franco have been fired as minor-league coaches.

Oliveras managed Double-A Binghamton and Franco was at the helm of the Gulf Coast League team.

Interesting.  Who’s going to be left after all these firings?  And who is going to fill those holes?

Here, I'll start

With Willie Randolph getting closer and closer to the chopping block, at least in the fans eyes, I'll be the first to suggest this replacement.

Newly retired, former-everything, Julio Franco.

Why not?
