BIB on the Go: What It's Like To Change Managers, With Garrett Crochet

From Baseball Isn’t Boring by Audacy

About this episode

Garrett Crochet discusses his experiences with changing managers during the season and the impact on players in the clubhouse.

Garrett Crochet has now experienced changing managers in the middle of a season three times. The first occasion came when Miguel Cairo took over for an ailing Tony LaRussa with the White Sox. Then Pedro Grifol was let go and replaced by Grady Sizemore. And, most recently, Crochet is living life with a new skipper in Chad Tracy after Alex Cora's dismissal. Bradfo talks to the ace pitcher about the dynamic and how the players inside the clubhouse view such a move.
