Why did MLB reinstate ex-Braves GM John Coppolella from the 'permanently ineligible' list and what has he been doing since 2017? He hasn't spoken publicly since he resigned. Until now. 'I did it to myself.'
and more. There would have been no World Series parade without them – or the mark Coppolella left on their roster.
But here’s what we do know: When that team’s tickertape moment arrived, the parade went on without him. And he understands exactly why. Even if his rise to the GM’s office had been the end of his story, Coppolella would have had plenty to share with young students. He told the story of his rise through the ranks in his seven seasons working with the Yankees, his move to the Braves, his time as a general manager. He’d made it, he told the students. He’d reached the peak. He was a success.
Flaskey was a one-time college baseball player and a former scout for the Montreal Expos. But now he was about to become something else – a lifeline for Coppolella. “That’s an approach that I take today in everything that I do, that I have to be above board on everything, and play by the rules even if others are not, because of all that happened.”
Flaskey had once played baseball for Gaylord Perry at Limestone University in South Carolina. He took Coppolella to the school to introduce him to the baseball team. The visit sparked something bigger.
