Arizona Sources Say Price Gone as Manager Wednesday, March 22nd, 2023 The fans in Arizona have gotten their way -- today the Wildcats parted company with manager Carlton Price. He had been living on borrowed time after a poll of local sports fans found that he was about as popular as the plague. Fans had been increasingly more vocal about their displeasure with how Price was running the club on and off the field. They had even created a "Fire Price Zone" in the right field bleachers, where fans would post signs and dress in t-shirts supporting his exodus as manager. Asked if fan pressure had any effect on the termination, a Wildcats official, spoke off the record and said, "Yes, it had a bearing. We are always concerned about our fan base, but this was not the primary reason for the dismissal. In the last few months, things have gone downhill and we just had to do something about it. We decided to get new leadership in the clubhouse." |
