So who besides Joe Girardi, Dusty Baker, and the rest who have been or will get fired will be avaiable for hire next year?

Who if anyone would you want to manage your team?

Hopefully Joe Torre. Although I think he would just retire if he wasn't going to return to the Yanks.

My #1 choice for the Yanks would be Girardi, but it seems as if Mattingly is being groomed to replace Clueless Joe.

Ned Yost will be gone. Of that I am sure and such as he will no longer be managing therefore we need to find him a map to such as leave the state to find his way back to his original home such as Atlanta or maybe to NASCAR therefore he could be in the Pit Crew for some team such as Dale Earnhardt Jr.

The thing I find funniest about managers is they get all the credit when a team does well, yet when they find a way to screw up we call for their heads....there is no happy medium. IMO what a lot of fans dont realize is how a manager must get max effort out of players who don't care, mesh guys from different cultures, and get cocky SOBs to all aim for the same goal, and get them believing in the phrase "team over player". Its not all about second guessing a matchup in the seventh inning of game 41 out of 162

Dusty Baker would look great in a Brewers uniform.

Well even if the Yankees pull off a miracle and somehow pull it together and win the WS, Joe Torre will be gone.

He'll retire before George even says "You're.....".

I just hope the Yanks upstairs crew will come to their senses and hire Girardi, or else we're in for 10 more years of absolutely nothing doin' with Mattingly at the helm.

QFT

And this rings true for every professional sport, fans (understandibly) like to nit-pick and choose scape-goats for anything..in any situation, even if the teams do well...Owners fire managers/coaches 99% of time due to pressure from the fans.
