I hate the Yankees

[Maverick Hiker]

It looks like Ex Yankee manager and player Joe Girardi is going to manage the Phillies. I don't believe  that Joe Girardi  is the answer there, but time will tell.  My prediction is that he will be fired in a couple of years.  I was hoping the Phillies would hire Buck  Schowalter instead.

I would be surprise if Buck chooses to manager again.

Collect the same money in the booth and not have the 24x7 headaches of being the manager.

Some guys thrive on it.

I suspect he is a position to be choosier about where he works, of course, there has to be be interest on the club side of things too.

I think that if he wasn't interested he wouldn't be going to interviews.

He has interviewed with the Phillies and Angels, if you believe sports internet media reports.

How many open jobs are there currently?

Sorry, I could have sworn, I read the other day, there was 5 openings.

MMM

So 2 for 2, sounds like, he is indeed serious about getting back into the dugout.

Cubs, Angels, Phillies, Mets, Padres.

Cubs, Angels and Phillies have chosen new managers.

Five minus three equals two.

True.  Was going off the top of my head which didn't work well.

It's quite confusing.  So five minus three equals....five?  New math is so difficult.

It's actually 6-5 (Phi, CHC, LAA, SD, KC)+2 = 3 (NYM, SF, PIT)

Not a baseball name, like Hayden Penn.  Terrible hire.

Buck to the Mets would be pretty highly entertaining.  But idk that I could wish that on a guy that I still like.
