As long as he knows all the weird minutiae rules.
Seems like Pujols or Molina would benefit more from a former manager as their bench coach than another inexperienced future Hall of Famer.
Another benefit with Pujols is some Dodger espionage

Well...Dave Roberts certainly wouldn't get violent with him, that's for sure

@mikedeportes According to my sources, the San Diego Padres have called future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols with interest in interviewing him for the team's manager position. #albertopujols

Grandal? Didn’t they hate him?
Turns out he’s actually a AAA manager, so maybe!
It’d be funny if instead of hiring Pujols, they hired Ben Johnson instead.
I saw an Orioles fan say that Pujols would be a bad fit there because how could such a big star relate to such up-and-coming players, which highlights what a great fit he'd be here. Our problem is underachieving stars, so who better to get the most out of them than an all-time great?
My gut says Ellis. Once guys leave, they’re typically gone, and Servais gives Nevin “We gotta interview someone with experience to hide the fact that this whole process is a sham” vibes.
Cronyism is a known fault of Preller’s.
Should probably let it go cause he’s gone but this is a twofer for Shildt’s terrible managing
Since 2000, some of the best #MLB playoff bullpens were the least-used. With relievers getting so much more use and with declining effectiveness, it makes the continued choice to bunt -- and concede outs in key moments -- a head-scratching tactic.

A scatterplot showing playoff bullpens since the year 2000 playoffs. The percentage of batters faced by relievers is on the x axis, and the y axis shows FIP-. There is a loose but real correlation between bullpen usage and effectiveness (FIP-). The years with the most-used bullpens are some of the worst years performance-wise.
I wonder if they're showing the game at the resort in Tulum Tatis is staying at.
Despite Preller's hype, I think Baltimore is a better job.
He also was a phenom who had injury problems, so maybe he could connect with Tatis.
He seems incredibly milquetoast, which puts him ahead of the assholes.
