New Reds' Manager

Anyone in line to take over for Baker?

Who should they hire?

Whoever they do hire will be an improvement.

Pete Rose

Not if it's Bobby Valentine!

He mis-managed my Red Sox last year, and was their WORST manager since Don Zimmer back in the '70s.

A lot of fans have said something like that over the years in every sport and been painfully wrong.

Yup. Baker's not a good manager, but you could certainly do worse

Based on a few moves the front office has made recently, I think whichever manager they hire will be a little more supportive/open to new-age ideas. I get the impression the Reds think Dusty's "old-fashionedness" is what caused him to ultimately fall short.
