The MLB coaching carousel is extremely active, and yet another manager has suffered from a below-average performance this season.
According to ESPN’s MLB insider Jeff Passan, the Texas Rangers and legendary manager Bruce Bochy have mutually agreed to part ways. Bochy has been with the Rangers since the 2023 season; the same season he won a World Series with Texas.
Bruce Bochy’s tenure with the Rangers
Over his three seasons with the team, he compiled a 249-237 record, just a touch over a 51% winning rate. After the World Series victory in 2023, Bochy failed to get the Rangers back in the postseason over the next two seasons.
Even worse than not reaching the postseason in back-to-back seasons, Bochy failed to even get the Rangers above a .500 record both last season and this season.
According to Passan, Bochy has been allowed to rejoin the club as an advisor. Bochy will also be able to explore other options.
