Mick Cronin is expected to get a bump in salary next season when he starts as head coach for UCLA. Jordan Kellogg, Cincinnati Enquirer
I come to the UC beat with a Reds perspective after covering the club for 22 years. So I’m going to compare Mick Cronin’s departure to Dusty Baker’s in a careful-what-you-wish-for way.
Cronin, like Baker, was not popular with a certain segment of the fan base. Mention Baker to some Reds fans and the playoffs losses come up immediately.
