Red Sox 2013 Managerial/FO Changes

[Nomar]

Wowza. The Sox said that they wanted to bring in someone Sr to help BC for a couple of years.

The only way Cashman would take the role IMO is that the meddling power behind the throne (LL) cannot mess with him, or baseball ops in general.

Great! LL is fine for business related areas. Cashman is no dummy. BC has skills. Get a decent Manager and road map to get us to opening day 2015 and my faith would be largely restored.

I think you read AI's post wrong. It seems like you think that Cashman is interested in coming here when it is his assistant that Edes was talking about.

Classic... I read the name as a reporters name.... well my only excuse is cup 3 of my latest new coffee bean - wicked high caf content... Be fun if we got Cashmam for his cushy last job before retirement...

BTW, to change topics if you like coffee a lot, there is nothing like roasting your own... mmmmm..

Is he talking about who his top candidates are? Or what candidates the Red Sox are actually looking at.

Im guessing the latter

Not a hot coffee guy, but i do like it iced. Living in a dorm really cramps the ability to get a good cup of coffee anyways.

Bill Mueller would be great. Seriously, i would love that.

I like Lowell but there are mixed opinions on him and to me he seems like a perfect match for Miami.

He's probably pulling those last 3 names out of his ***. He listed them as possible out of the box candidates like a week ago. Mueller likes it on the West coast and never liked media attention.

My manager at work is a NYY fan. He said you need a manager like Joe Torre or someone like Joe Girardi. And I completely agreed with him.

Im too young to know, but what was Torre's perception with people at the time of his hiring with NY?

Same here maybe Bags would know. If he got along I guess It cant hurt.

What was the perception of Joe Torre when he got hired?

See, this is why i would like to see a guy who is new to managing. Everyone starts somewhere.

Edit - thanks though Lav

Torre wasn't new. He managed a couple teams before the Yankees.
