Manager Castillo Loses Job; Fired by Hanshin
Monday, September 12th, 2022
Juan Castillo's tenure with the Hanshin Tigers is over. Castillo was officially fired from his position as team manager today, following a two-hour closed-door meeting with the club's owner and general manager. "We certainly didn't see eye-to-eye on every issue, but I guess at the end of the day they feel the team is better off without me running it. There's not much I can do about that," Castillo told BNN. "Do I want to stay here and try to turn this team around? Of course I do, but such is life." Team officials have remained unusually quiet on the specific reasons behind the firing and have thus far refused to discuss the issue with media.
