Astros announce 10 finalist for manager

[PhatMack19]

Hold onto your hats, Astros fans, the team just announced its 10 managerial candidates: One is Phil Garner. The other nine: Dave Clark, Al Pedrique, Ned Yost, Randy Ready, Bob Melvin, Manny Acta, Brad Mills, Tim Bogar and Pete Mackanin.

Outta those I like Scrapiron back. Might as well go with Herm Edwards then at least he knows "You Play To Win The Game!"

Bring back Garner and change the other coaches.  Keep Cruz and Clark, but fire everybody else.

Alot of the problem is with the ownership not the manager

I like this option the best.  Just makes sense to me

[Vidor50]

Hey Tim Bogar looks good also, had a good head on his shoulders when he was a player and when managed.  Interesting choices are there for the Astros.  Hopefully Wade will do the right thing and that is if Drayton allows him to do so.  Any way we go it is a rebuilding year next year and probably the following also.

Garner, Bogar or Acta would be good choices.  But definately need to keep Cruz and Clark.  They need badly a pitching and batting coach.

Wonder why they don't give Cruz a shot.  ???

[Ty Cobb]

I sent my application in yesterday.  Hopefully, I will hear something by the end of the week.

What's that..? A terrible slow start, leading to a strong finish coming up just short?

Bring in Brad Mills from Boston. Been there for a while, and knows what it takes to win.
Don't bring back Clark as the Manager, just let him coach third again.
Garner would be my second option.

[PhatMack19]

Cruz was named special assistant to the GM, so he will stay with the team.

I dont want Gardner.  Mills the one we need. Phillys and Red Sox....Something had to rub off.
