Throughout this entire supervisor search process, it has been stated that Mike Shildt and Ryan Flaherty were viewed as the favorites but has that changed? Nobody has reported they aren't in the race any longer but if President of Baseball Procedures AJ Preller was so confident in among those guys, would not he have simply made the hire currently? Information today: Phil Nevin is amongst the finalists to be called Padres supervisor, sources say. Nevin, that went to high institution 100 miles north of Petco Park, played 806 ready San Diego throughout his occupation. -- Jon Morosi November 13, 2023It has actually been virtually 3 weeks because the San Francisco Giants worked with Bob Melvin as their manager. The Houston Astros have worked with Joe Espada. The Los Angeles Angels have hired Ron Washington Guardians Shorts. The Cleveland Guardians have worked with Stephen Vogt. The Chicago Cubs hired Craig Counsell. The New York City Mets have actually hired Carlos Mendoza. And still no hire from the Padres. Why?Because Preller and the other greater ups in the organization are beginning to like Phil Nevin? Sure might be the situation. Nevin utilized to play for the group, has years of big league training experience and big league handling experience. The 52-year-old just ended up managing two of the biggest stars on earth in Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout. Just how would certainly he do if he had a more talented lineup than he had in Anaheim? Shildt, Flaherty and Gil might likewise have no other challenger to visit so perhaps they might construct a pretty solid mentoring staff under Nevin. Of program former Cubs captain David Ross is additionally out there. Is that delaying things? He may not finish up getting the job however even if he's delaying this, what does that inform you concerning San Diego's confidence in Shildt or Flaherty?Hopefully we get a hire quickly. If it's not Shildt or Flaherty, we possibly should not be surprised considering the length of time this is taking.
