I don't think he will be fired this year. In other words, I think he'll manage at least the 2020 season.

Do not eve think his seat will get warm until 2021 if the team is still not winning.
This team kept Price for what 4 seasons? Bell has a lot more then 1.

I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.
Just a wild guess: Sept 28, 2020
He appears to have enough support to last into next year. I see nothing but negatives whether his childish fighting on the field, ridiculous ejections, over-managing during the game, penchant for sitting his best players for rest even if they are smoking hot at the dish, etc...
This is exactly how I view Bell. If I was the owner he would have been fired after running across the field after Hurdle. Classless for a person in that position.
When nepotism ceases to run rampant?
AKA not for a long long long time in Reds country.

Ah yes, the nepotism of uhhhh, a guy who’s an advisor to the GM. Buddy Bell sure is calling the shots for the Reds, for sure man.

…..and Dick Williams got his job how? With what kind of experience and qualifications?
Bob Sheed (10-04-2019),RedsFanInMS (10-02-2019)
He was in baseball operations for the Reds since 2006 and was being groomed for the big job by Jocketty.
It was unquestionably nepotism that brought Williams to power, it's certainly a fair charge. Trying to extend that to David Bell though, whose last two jobs were as the bench coach for the St. Louis Cardinals and ran the Giants development system and who interviewed for managerial openings with other teams this last offseason, is ridiculous. But when all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail.

I blame a lot of that on ownership don't say stupid things at his introductory press conference like his grandfather was my favorite player or my favorite quote you can never go wrong with a bell. I don't blame any of that stuff on David Bell I blame it on the ignorant owner but putting David Bell in that situation by saying that stuff
Crazy Reds Fan
Doesn't he have a multi year contract?
