FIRED-LOL The Phillies just got swept and now radio sports talk show hosts are trying to get him fired-lol I find it funny every time the Phillies lose they are saying they want him fired. I think the reason why is because of how charlie is. He doesn;t speak weel, kind of goofy and studders all the time and i think phillies fans have trouble taking someone like that seriously as a baseball manager

I'm not surprised...Charlie never was a fan favorite here in Cleveland either. To his credit, he was an excellent hitting coach who helped our team get to 2 World Series (1995 and 1997), but I don't think he's a good manager.

To tell you the truth, I'm surprised he's lasted as long as he has in Philly!!

Jim Thome wanted him here. That's why he was hired
