MLBTR: Don Mattingly Won’t Return As Dodgers Manager
(I don't have much to add to the conversation. I just REALLY wanted to use that headline.)
I will say, speaking personally, that Donnie was never as bad as his most vocal detractors claimed (Three straight NL West titles!), but never as good as I'd hoped he'd be. (PEDRO BAEZ?!! C'mon, man, I'm trying to defend you here!)
So, the search begins for a new skipper. Any volunteers?

You? OK. Your namesake? NOOOOOOPE.
Memo to Saxy...ESPN reporting that Ron Roenicke's name is in the mix.
Lord have mercy.
Also mentioned Bud Black and Eli.
...and of course my personal favorite, Dusty Baker...original or ours, I'm okay either way.
Matt Williams. Cc:Ned Coletti
I would mind Bud
Or spank
I wonder how seriously they are considering Wallach?
Team Eli
^ wouldn't mind Bud or Spank
Donezo Mattingly?
Don't Mattingly?
Gabe Kapler is being considered? Really? I guess he can show them to not get rice in their Chipotle bowls
Our own Orel did pretty good job given the limitations of the SoSG softball franchise's limited payroll. There might be a Sarkisian-esque drunken press conference or two, though.
Either him, Wallach or Bud Black. In that order of preference.
Appreciate the vote of confidence, Cliffy. If it happens, it'll be a mutual decision.
Is Walter Alston available?
But can he get on base?
Whoever manages next, I hope they use the phrase "It gives us the best chance to win today" a whole lot.
I was wondering the same think Spanky.
...or same thing. I need a nap.
No takers?!
no word on Eli yet. maybe Eli Wallach from the good,bad and the ugly? "BLONDIE!!!"
TIM WALLACH YOU GOOFS!!! That is what we Dodgers fans in the know call him...
I picture Karen as Anger from Inside Out
Well Orel...see what you've gone and done?? Now I have to add that movie along to my must see list with the recently promised Star Wars viewings. :)
Quick Google search for Tim Wallach says he was nicknamed "Eli" after the actor Eli Wallach. So you're partially right Spank.
