Bud Black was fired on Sunday by the Colorado Rockies. Betonline paid out $200 for every $100 bet for Black to be the next Major League Baseball manager fired.
It didn't take long. BetOnline posted their odds on Friday.
Black was let go a day after losing by 21 runs to the San Diego Padres, fired manager Bud Black on Sunday.
The Rockies are a major league-worst 7-33 start, even after defeating the Padres, 9-3, on Sunday to salvage one game in the series and snap an eight-game losing skid. Third base coach Warren Schaeffer will serve as interim manager for the rest of the season, and hitting coach Clint Hurdle will serve as interim bench coach.
The Rockies, who also fired bench coach Mike Redmond, will open a road trip on Monday night against the Texas Rangers.
Black was in his ninth year as Rockies manager and had a career record with Colorado of 544-690.
With that, the next MLB manager to be fired odds appear below and will be updated but the Angels Ron Washington is next on the hit list.
Ron Washington (Angels) 7/2 (+
John Schneider (Blue Jays) 4/1
Brandon Hyde (Orioles) 9/2
Dave Martinez (Nationals) 5/1
Rocco Baldelli (Twins) 8/1
Joe Espada (Astros) 25/
Aaron Boone (Yankees) 33/1
Rob Thomson (Phillies) 50/1
