You're Sandy Alderson, and good God, you're on a roll. I mean, getting this list of former managers down to 40 names? That was the hard part. And look at the Red Sox! They're weeks behind you in the manager hunt! Forty names. Heck, half the whittling down from this point is about who picks up the phone. Pick three of these dudes to bring in for an interview, and you're golden. GOLDEN!

Tony Pena. I named my son after him

Benjamin Grimm Oct 14 2017 07:01 PM Re: Duke Jockstraps Presents Find Us a Manager (Rd. 2, Group

That's the exact same reason why I voted for Moose Stubing.

Moose Grimm, except for Tony Mccooby, is the best name I ever heard
