Rob Thomson is “expected to receive consideration” for the Blue Jays job after Cito Gaston retires. Thomson managed the Yankees for three games in 2008, becoming the first Canadian to manage in the big leagues since 1934.

Also, Joe Torre is way old, and even if he isn't retiring, he's not taking a job this year, certainly not with someone who isn't a WS contender.
