The Phillies are focusing on Dusty Wathan. He has 8 years of management experience within the minor leagues. Had more wins with Reading than anyone. Also led Lehigh to winning seasons as well.
The players have nothing but high praise for him, and he works well with youth.
Wathan is just 43 years old and he could grow with this team as they mature. I picked him as the
best man for the job since the search for manager started. I expect the Phillies to hire him soon.
Nothing would make me happier if Dusty is selected!

Well this decent news Northeast!
I agree Retro. Dusty has already worked with and coached many of our rising stars. Thus, there will
be a certain comfort level involved. Make it happen Phillies!

This potential hiring reminds of what my Rams are experiencing this year with the youngest hire in the NFL at HC with Sean McVay. Wathan has a similar MO only in baseball obviously. I agree Northeast. PHILLIES, MAKE IT HAPPEN!!

I think the Rams can go places this season with McVay. Young blood can be exiting!

Sean's grandfather was john McVay, 49'ers VP in their glory days of 5 Super Bowls, 4 under Bill Walsh.

Just heard that Girardi is available. This could be interesting!

Yep, Yanks decided not to offer him a new contract. Big mistake IMO. Vegas had the Yanks at 82.5 wins this year and the odds of them reaching the ALCS was over 300-1 and they basically fire him

Giraldi would be a def improvement, Northeast. Yep, jvette, the McVay kid has plenty of pedigree to assure nearly guaranteed success.
