The second half of this season they should have done something creative like that. Why not? None of the in-game managing stuff matters right now. Have Getz do the roster and let celebrity managers work with Grady on the day to day lineup, etc.

Veeck as in Wreck.

They have over 20 managerial candidates lined up to be interviewed so I'm sure there's more than a few who are on that list.  I would love to see Sal Fasano get an interview.  One of the nicest and smartest baseball guys I've ever talked to.

What a waste of time. Identify a guy and go get him. Geez.

Haha how is that a waste of time? They need to talk to/get opinions from as many people as possible. 

The best job searches are ones in which the guys in charge identify 1, 2, 3 individuals they REALLY want and they go get that person. You can overthink it.

Why does he want to waste his time? 

I’m not sure it matters, I don’t expect whoever they hire to be around when they get good again.

Thank you, Sir, that changes my opinion of Buck Showalter. 

I have always got the good vibe/sugar coated stuff about Buck from MLB network and ESPN because he was on the shows as an analyst.  

I like Keith Law coming out with what he really thinks. I do remember Ozzie taking a few digs at Buck calling him, "Mr. Baseball". But with Ozzie I kind of take with a grain of salt.

I wish MLB covered their hiring processes like NFL teams do. When an NFL team interviews a candidate for GM/HC, it’s always reported on by the team. I wish MLB had that transparency

MLB is a legal monopoly

At least we could make a nice list of candidates  that turned down the Sox
