Show notes
Ben and Carlos talk about the Tony Vitello to the majors rumors and think about the skills that would or wouldn’t translate from the college game to the majors. Should MLB teams be looking for more managers from the college ranks? And why don’t we see more MLB/college coaching crossover in general? The two then discuss which of the current MLB manager vacancies would be the most and least appealing.—Time Stamps(0:00) Cam Schlittler(10:30) Tony Vitello, big league manager?(17:00) The value of college head coaches vs. MLB managers(25:00) Lifestyle of college jobs vs. MLB managers(37:30) The media scrutiny of an MLB manager(40:00) Should major league teams recruit college coaches more frequently?(51:00) Pat Murphy as a successful example(55:00) Which MLB manager jobs are the most/least appealing?(1:02:00) The Rockies & the Coors Field problem(1:09:30) A question about MLB ball adjustmentsDo you have feedback for the show or want to ask us a question?
