THE A’S JUST FIRED DAVID FORST!

David Forst is OUT — and the A’s just blew up the front office heading into the most important transition in franchise history. After more than two decades inside the organization and nearly 30 years of the Billy Beane/David Forst era, Forst is gone, with assistant GM Dan Feinstein stepping in on an interim basis while the A’s launch a “comprehensive” search for a new general manager. Was this truly a mutual parting of ways, or was Forst fired? And did his reported reluctance to move to Las Vegas play a role? Last Call is going straight into the fire. Tonight, following the A’s vs. Red Sox game, Booney breaks down what Forst’s departure means for the franchise, the young core, the pitching disaster, the coming move to Las Vegas and the enormous challenge facing whoever takes over the front office. The A’s are 45-70, staring at another losing season, and now they’re replacing the man who has been running baseball operations since Beane stepped into an advisory role. Is this the beginning of a real reset—or another chapter in the A’s organizational chaos? Join us LIVE at 8:00 PM tonight for Last Call: A’s Postgame.
