Alas

It looks like Dusty Baker is not the fifth candidate for the Dodgers' managerial job.

Ron Wotus, the San Francisco Giant bench coach, was announced Monday as the fifth candidate, joining Dodger minor league staffers Terry Collins and Jerry Royster, recently fired Detroit Tiger manager Alan Trammell and Cleveland Indian minor league manager Torey Lovullo.

Then again, when you read the whole article, these five names may not be the only five considered.

DePodesta has a secondary list that he said is deep and strong. It is unknown whether that list contains candidates with more major league managerial experience than the initial five.

I wonder if any of these men traded arms for hostages ever made bad movies about people with self-destructive personalities?
