DENVER, Colo. - Less than two years after he led the franchise to its first World Series appearance, Clint Hurdle is out as manager of the Colorado Rockies, the Denver Post reported Friday, citing a Major League Baseball source.
Hurdle, who managed the team for seven years, will likely be replaced by Rockies' bench coach Jim Tracey, the Post reports.
The team scheduled a news conference for 2:30 p.m. Mountain Time to announce the move.
After a remarkable post-season run in 2007, the Rockies finished 74-88 during the 2008 campaign and are currently in last place in the National League West division with a record of 18-28.
The Rockies host the San Diego Padres this weekend.
