Update p 2: Tony LaRussa Retires

[jagtrader]

Kurkjian is just boosting a co-worker. I can't see the Cardinals bringing aboard someone as snide and divisive as Valentine. No need for it.

BRING BACK WHITEY

You guys just got a lot less hateable.

We still have Wart.

Well played Mauer....

LaRussa confused the crap out of me sometimes, but he got the most out of every team he managed and every player he managed, and he oversaw one of the greatest runs in Cardinals history..

Side note: I think he manages again, just not next year. Guy is a baseball lifer, and will get the itch next May when he's at home playing with his pomerianians

101 ESPN mentioned Tom Lawless as a dark horse possibility. I can't even imagine.

I'd interview:

Oquendo
Francona
Matheny

Only after you offer it to Maddon!

[docellis]

I don't know why, but I don't want Francona.

Matheny

Matheny is a very handsome man and was a tremendous defensive catcher. What else does he bring?

[Fat Strat]

JL mentioned it earlier and I'll echo it. Mike Matheny is not a candidate to manage the Cardinals. Unless I'm missing part of his history, he's never even coached before.
