Managing is a little bit different from coaching. I think with coaching, they want to see how you do with the "hands on" molding of players at the lower levels first, where as with managing its more about handing personalities, giving advice and making decisions on strategies and such. Different jobs.
oddly enough, bullpen coach or pitching coach of some kind. perhaps even a roving instructor. Been enough pitchers at AAA raving about the things Corky has said that makes me think he might be the next Dave Duncan.

The following video is posted on the Blue Wahoos twitter account. Really cool link that brings you up to date on the very fast progression of the field and park. Green grass is down and things look really good to date. The head groundskeeper hosts this piece.

Excellent. I do plan to get there in person though.
Attended 1976 World Series in my Mother's Womb. Attended 1990 World Series Game 2 as a 13 year old. Want to take my son to a a World Series Game in Cincinnati in my lifetime.
The reds farm system sure took a hit this offseason, but the Reds quietly are developing some future managers. Bell, Sweet, Griffey Sr., Riggleman, DeShields are all guys who are known and supposedly well respected around baseball.

In that it took as long as it did to name the staff, I had given up on Tom Brown. Glad he's back.
