Pedey player manager he’s making a lot of money .

 

Only if he retires, first and then we sign him as a manager/consultant for the same money spread out over 30 years. Lower the LUX TAX!

We're moving forward -- replying to this thread started by a Sox fan, and without the ex-manager's name in the title.

 

My choices are either Mike Lowell or Eduardo Perez; both good former MLB players with Boston ties who have stayed in the game as analysts, both respected by the industry, both bilingual. The modern majors doesn't require managers with experience managing, just leaders who value employees. Old school retread disciplinarians need not apply.

I think it will be Matt Quatraro. Bloom will hire someone he knows. And Quatraro is a former catcher, which does translate into better managing skills in many cases...

Alas, the guy who fits that description is Cora. MLB can chest-pump itself for being bad-ass moralists, but they need to find a way to keep AC around.

There's more than one Cora with coaching experience...

Bloom: ‘There’s no question it’s an unusual time to be doing a managerial search. ... We want to make sure we do this justice.’

Kennedy says it’s inappropriate to comment on candidates but says the team does welcome growing responsibility for Jason Varitek.

Clint Hurdle?

 

I assume that is a joke. Hurdle was an absolute disaster in Pittsburgh. His tenure there make the BV era in Boston look like a model of manager player relations

@redsoxstats

Ownership, management, McCutchen, Cole, Meadows, Glasnow, Vazquez, all embarrassments for Pittsburgh, but Clint Hurdle is pretty intriguing for anyone that has read Big Data Baseball.

That was written four years ago long before the Pirates players and coaches were physically assaulting one another and Clint Hurdle was befuddled how to stop it.

Clint Hurdle made the mess that Ben Cherrington was hired to help clean up.
