With health issues a top priority now, Hall of Fame manager Tony La Russa is expected to announce his retirement Monday.
La Russa listened, and will walk away. He likely will stay in the White Sox organization as a special assistant, but those long, demanding and stressful days are over. Baseball has long been his life, but this is no time to sacrifice his own life for it.
They will soon begin formulating a list of managerial candidates, including everyone from Bruce Bochy to Mike Shildt to Joe Espada to George Lombard. It’s ideal that the WBC semifinals and finals will be Miami, resurrecting memories of 2017 when the Marlins’ ballpark was packed, with an atmosphere that rivaled any World Series game when the Dominican Republic or Puerto Rico played.
“Nowadays, things have changed, and I’m glad baseball took that route. They’re allowing kids to be who they are, expressing the flair they have.’’ “I understood that I was more than just a player, I represented my country , and loved that responsibility.’’ ► The Houston Astros may have to win the World Series for GM James Click to keep his job, and perhaps even then might not be enough for his job security.
The Los Angeles Angels would love to have Bochy, too, but with the franchise up for sale, it’s possible they stick with interim Phil Nevin one more season. If not, former Rockies manager Walt Weiss, now Atlanta’s bench coach, could be the favorite. Former Blue Jays manager John Gibbons, who was with GM Perry Minasian in Toronto, should also be under consideration.
The Mariners have to win the top wild-card berth ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays and Tampa Bay Rays to host the best-of-three first-round series. If they don’t win the first round, the Mariners’ fans won’t see them again until March 30, 2023, for opening day. ► The Dodgers celebrated the fabulous career of Jaime Jarrin, 86, who broadcast the Dodgers in the Spanish-speaking broadcast booth alongside Vin Scully, since 1959. He’s retiring after the season.
“I want a long-term relationship with someone,” Correa told reporters. “I want to get married, I don’t want to just be dating and going on one-night stands. I want to marry an organization. ► The Yankees, who thought they found their No. 2 starter when they acquired Frankie Montas from the Oakland A’s, now are just hoping he can help out in the bullpen. Montas has been a bust, going 1-3 with a 6.
► Future Hall of Fame catcher Yadier Molina will officially manage Team Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic, creating a firestorm. Eduardo Perez, the GM of the team, abruptly resigned when he learned that Dr. Jose Quiles, president of Puerto Rico’s baseball federation, chose Molina without telling him. Perez wanted Astros bench coach Joe Espada.
