Re: The Manager of the Future:

Fella's we're starting to right the ship,and now another Dusty poll.The Reds are trying to win now,and not worry about who their manager will be in the future.Course I'm guilty of posting Dusty threads,but we have since a glimpse of sunlight with the Redlegs I'm trying to get some positive vibes going.

Rick Sweet has more than paid his dues. The job should be handed to him.

Lol.

I'm going to go ahead and say that the Reds are going to go out-of-house to find the next manager. I may end up looking like a fool for saying this, but with all the $ Castellini & Co. have infused, I feel like they are going to go with a proven winner - TLR is my call if Dusty goes - I'd like to see Gardenhire too, btw --

Re: The Manager of the Future:

I'm tired of ex-Red managers. The minor league system is full of them. I'd rather have the best man for the job, rather than looking through at the names in the Reds entry on Wikipedia for coaches. If one is absolutely good enough, then fine. But great players don't always make great managers.

Re: The Manager of the Future:

Everyone knows TLR wants to run a franchise... With that being said I see him as our next manager, with the promise being be made to him that when Walt retires, the club is his to run. Just my opinion
