From Zachary Levine of the Houston Chronicle comes word that the Astros have promoted Tony DeFrancesco from his post as manager of the Triple-A Oklahoma City RedHawks to the position of interim manager at the major league level.
DeFrancesco, who?s never managed in the bigs but served as the A?s third base coach in 2008, is filling the spot left vacant by Brad Mills? firing. He has not been guaranteed anything beyond the 2012 season but told reporters Sunday morning that he wants to be ?the guy who changes the environment out there.?
The Astros have also named Dan Radison as interim first base coach and Ty?Van Burkleo as interim hitting coach after firing first base coach Bobby Meachem and hitting coach Mike Barnett alongside Mills late Saturday night. Houston enters play Sunday against the Diamondbacks with an MLB-worst 39-82 record.
