Will he stay status quo and keep Atkins..

My guess he won't fire Atkins

For this reason, both have to go.

I think you underestimate the business world. Self preservation is real. Arguably Atkins could've been let go a couple seasons ago. His nine lives have left. If he doesn't dump Atkins the failure points to him. If he goes down with that ship it's admirable but I don't think his type happens in the real world. Give it a week or two and we'll see what transpires here. Edward Rogers arguably likes baseball more than anything, so to not boot Atkins after this much fail, to me is highly unlikely, no matter what insiders say will happen. He's as good as gone in the corporate world. Shapiro though, I think has good runway left.
