Joe Coleman...in trouble again?
It was June of 1961 when Basse-Pointe manager Joe Coleman started feeling the heat. The worst record in Single A had little to do with the shortened fuse of the Le Diamant ownership. It was Coleman's poor relationship with the players and press that led to his undoing. Fired, and not too many tears were shed by the home town fans and organization.
It seems, respectively, that Manager Joe is trying to bring a new face to the press. Asking for them to 'lighten up' on his guys. Maybe, trying to win some dugout support? Hard to say. Many outsiders have wondered if Joe's undoing this time might be his win/loss record.
The Nobels owner has been silent to date. I liked Joe as my manager. I hope he can turn it around and get his first winning season.
