Ty Dane GonzalezHOST
If that person has Major League, uh, managerial experience, that would be preferred.
Ty Dane GonzalezHOST
But generally speaking, we're just looking for someone who has high character growth mindset." So my initial question is, does going outside of the organization to hire the next manager, does that exclude guys who have been here recently who are now outside the org, like Carson Vitale, Chris Ford, Negron?
Colby PatnodeHOST
Yeah, I would assume Negron and Vitale are, are not, uh, going to be hired, uh, because they were, you know, from both Dan and Scott, like both of those guys.
Ty Dane GonzalezHOST
Yeah.
JaegeHOST
I know the boys over at Marine Layer are very high on Kai Correa.
JaegeHOST
There are potential other options of, of folks that could be fits that have ties to the Mariners organization as well, whether that be Christopher Negron, whether that be Carson Vitale, whether that be potentially Raul Ibanez.
JaegeHOST
But realistically for myself, I would prefer to see some experience, someone who's been there, someone who can lead.
JaegeHOST
Because as I said earlier in this podcast, it felt very clear that a level of leadership just was not there, that the self-governance concept that the Mariners had employed over the past five years had finally run its course, and that the only leadership that was available was when things were going good.
Craig MishGUEST
I do believe that some of the stuff potentially is conveyed to him, definitely through me, because I will show him some of the comments that people make.
Craig MishGUEST
And then the other person I think that may occasionally show him stuff is Carson Vitale.
Craig MishGUEST
Carson Vitale is a great person.
Craig MishGUEST
So I think Carson Vitale is going to be a manager someday for someone.
Craig MishGUEST
I really do believe that he has had a huge impact on the bench with this team and getting these guys in the right positions and sort of with all the craziness that happens over the course of the year, the winning and the losing.
Craig MishGUEST
This guy has been as even keel as anyone.
Craig MishGUEST
Like, AJ, you can imagine.
Craig MishGUEST
Everybody just wants to go home.
Ty Dane GonzalezHOST
So how deep is the next manager's list of connections going to be? How many guys is he gonna wanna bring over? I mean, if they do hire Torey Lovullo, you'd think he'd wanna bring over at least a good chunk of his Diamondback staff with him if they're also let go.
Ty Dane GonzalezHOST
But what if it's a first time manager? What if it's someone who's been here before, like Christopher Negron or Carson Vitale? Does that mean most of, or at least some of the current coaching staff stays? Does that ultimately accomplish what you need to if a lot of the voices remain the same?
Colby PatnodeHOST
Yeah.
Colby PatnodeHOST
I really hope they're not going to with a retread and who's gonna keep the entire staff, because very clearly this, this franchise needs new voices.
