Dusty Baker recently told people within and outside the organization that this would be his final season as manager of the Houston Astros, according to a report.

Baker, 74, hasn\'t publicly announced his decision. He declined to discuss his future after the Astros were eliminated by the Texas Rangers in Game 7 of the ALCS on Monday night.

He has managed the Astros for the past four seasons.

Unfortunately, yes...and some of his decisions this season were mind boggling/infuriating, but nothing but respect for the man and I'm glad he got to finally win it all last year.

He was/is a legend. I hope he has a fulfilling retirement.
