Red Sox fans can list about 10 times in the past 2 years where Dale has screw up. He was also the only member of the Red Sox to get booed during the World Series announcements. He needs to go and go now. With that being said who should replace him? How about Ellis Burks who said in the past he'd like to coach in the majors someday.
Since you're new, I'll forgive that remark, but know that I'd rather set my hair on fire than cheer for the Yankees.
I've watched enough Sox games to know that this is NOT an isolated incident of incompetence by Sveum. The fact that he's still getting a paycheck from the Sox is absolutely mind-boggling to me. If a base coach is doing a good job, he's invisible, because there are no (or few) baserunning blunders to note. Aside from Sveum, I can't name the third base coach for almost any other team in the majors, which says a lot about his ability as a coach relative to the rest of baseball.
