Tony Bernazard, New York Mets executive, reportedly fired by New York Mets - ESPN

Bernazard, VP of player development is responsible for the Mets' minor league farm system. He also figures to be the driving force behind the firings of Willie Randolph and Rick Peterson last season, and in some circles he also appeared to be aiming for Omar Minaya's job.

Given the lack of credible call-ups to replaced the injured Beltra, Delgado, Reyes, Putz, Maine, Sheffield, and three other players currently on the DL and the horrendous performance of their minor-league affiliates, I only wish he had gone into his shirt-tossing tirade earlier so they could've gotten rid of him sooner.
