The article alludes to things, like not even interviewing him for a coaching spot on the parent club, after paying his dues to their system.

Makes perfect sense.

He didnt even make Heyman's top 57 candidates available.

Not surprising. He isn’t a sexy name.

Neither is Ron Johnson, but I suspect either might make a good manager, as they are use to dealing with the younger players.

Former player, analytics, personable, good teacher.

Carlos Beltran

I like Billy Ripken, and his name is on the Heyman list.

Listening to Billy talk baseball on 105.7 interviews, its clear that his dad installed a lot of baseball knowledge into his head.

Might not be anything, but Mark DeRosa just said that this Friday may be his final show on MLB Network. Said it was TBD.

The Angels and Jays are also looking for a manager.

Please no. None of the Ripken's. He may make a great manager. But I would like someone not a former Oriole. Some fresh blood if at all possible.

I thought the Halos were keeping Mike?

I do not agree.

If he would bring back the Oriole way, and the right way to do things, and back to basic fundamentals of the game, makes sense to me.

I believe Mike announced that he was not returning as the Angels manager.

I guess I just dont stay up on things in the sports world. thanks

If the Orioles want a former Oriole as manager then I hope they go with Billy Ripken. I believe he would be a better choice than Mike Bordick.

He announced he would not return (his contract was up).
