Dusty Baker, who managed the Cincinnati Reds for several seasons until he was fired this winter, is looking to manage again.

"I feel like I could help somebody," Baker told the San Jose Mercury News.

Reds officials suggested announcing his departure as a "retirement" or Baker "taking a year off," the Mercury News reported.

"Why? That's not what I wanted," Baker said. "I'll know when I want to retire. ... I said, 'Let's call it what it is.'"
