Opening Day: Odds on the First MLB Manager to be Fired This Season

Baseball fans around the world are celebrating as Opening Day is finally here. 

There are also 30 managers celebrating their teams today, but we know that some of those skippers’ dreams will end before the season is over. 

BetOnline.ag set the annual ominous odds for the first manager fired during the regular season, which you can find below. 

Many of the favorites from last year’s firing market have carried into 2025 as guys John Schneider, Derek Shelton and Dave Martinez have been seemingly on thin ice for seasons. 

The Dodgers’ clubhouse general, Dave Roberts, has the longest odds of getting canned first at 200/1.
