Dodgers’ Dave Roberts Delivers Scathing Blow After Rockies Axe Bud Black: “Not Even Casey Stengel Could Fix That Team”
When the news broke that Bud Black was shown the door by the Colorado Rockies after a brutal start to the 2025 season, it struck a chord with Los Angeles Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts. Roberts didn’t mince words about the firing—he’s convinced the real issues aren’t rooted in Black’s leadership but rather the shaky foundation laid by the Rockies’ front office and ownership. Having worked closely with Black during his stint as a coach with the San Diego Padres, Roberts knows firsthand the challenge of trying to steer a struggling team through rough waters. Despite Black’s undeniable skills and respect earned over the years, the Rockies’ roster woes and front office decisions have left even the best managers in a bind. As the Rockies aim to turn the page with interim manager Warren Schaeffer, the shadow of this dismissal looms large—especially for a squad teetering on the precipice of another losing season.
