ORIGINAL: SoMnFan The Detroit Tigers have their sights set on several options as their next manager. Set to interview in coming weeks? Ron Gardenhire, Dave Martinez, Alex Cora, Hensley Meulens and Mike Redmond, according to Detroit News writer Lynn Henning. The biggest name of the group is Gardenhire, a bench coach of the Arizona Diamondbacks and former manager of the Minnesota Twins. His teams pestered the Tigers for years, and he has experience working with young players. Redmond has also managed before, calling the shots for the Miami Marlins from 2013-2015 and being a bench coach for the Colorado Rockies. Martinez and Cora are the big names from the up-and-comer category, with the former working with the Chicago Cubs and the latter being a bench coach for the Houston Astros. Meulens has experience managing the Netherlands team in the World Baseball Classic and is the hitting coach of the San Francisco Giants. Most of these candidates have teams still in the playoffs, so the Tigers might have to wait to conduct several of the interviews. They would be smartest to go after Dougie.... I'm hoping someone in the NL goes after him Get the feeling he will be a really good manager, and since we don't want him, I don't want him beating our ass, regularly.
