Fired by the Angels. Would we have any interest if things don’t go well with Marmol?
r/Esteemed Rat
I can’t believe this is a real question.
My thinking is that Marmol is carrying a straight A average on his Mo report card.
Maddon grew up a Cardinal fan and it would likely be a dream come true to pilot the club. But I think the ship has sailed on his opportunity.
But he will likely land a spot somewhere. He has a decent resume, so someone will come calling.
Zero chance the Cardinals would be interested in Maddon.
First, we already have a manager in only his first year.
Second, the Cardinals obviously prefer younger managers who are tied to the organization.
They could hire Maddon for a front office position for a half year contract. Near zero downside risk. And a ton of insurance.
I really don’t see why we need a new manager at all. We are a half game out of first despite zero help from the front office this past postseason.
