" However already Sparage I'm pleased we're joined by former Major League general manager Jim -- talking big league manager Cecil Cooper courses fired by the Astros Dave Clark. Takes over on an interim basis all you gotta wonder what other managers are in trouble right now. Well no question and Jim -- minutes the other interim GM like Dave Clark and both have been holed. That they're gonna be considered for their opening however it's also very clear that neither one is gonna get the full time job and your right there's two other openings that are going to -- number one. It truly is out in Baltimore he can -- dale the president is not happy with the Orioles play in the second half. Despite having a good nucleus of young players and the final change in the fourth one will be Eric Wedge at the Cleveland Indians who will be relieved of his duties next we -- this one. Extremely difficult because they're GM marks a pyro. Is extremely close personally with -- Eric Wedge. And also understands the blame isn't really Eric Wedge had to do with the moves that he's made it had -- new scouting and player development and the fact that ownership hasn't stepped up and spent the money. The blame really needs to be blamed with a lot of different people and shared but the fact is the -- gonna take the -- here Eric Wedge will be out included are you're expected to be at least four openings out there assault who the most experienced managers out there who could only spots really -- experienced managers out there include Bobby Valentine has been managing in Japan and the guys that cable I've taken a last place team -- giving it direction. He also help a team that's close to winning. Buck Showalter another quality guy who built the club from the bottom up and Arizona also a lot of experience in Texas would be a quality guy. And other other managers that have a lot of experience that deserve another chance Willie Randolph deserves a chance outside a New York. You've got Jim for go see who's very close to Ed wade in Houston you got Mike Hargrove again very close of people in Cleveland including march of -- You've got Ned yeah host the former Braves coach manager -- Milwaukee who's close to stand cast and the Washington Nationals and other candidates will include guys like Tony Pena. -- act like Clint Hurdle and Bob Melvin. What about new blood -- guys have yet imagine the big leagues that are available as a lot of good young managers out there you start -- Dave Duncan. The pitching coach of the St. Louis Cardinals not only is he one of the best pitching coaches in the game. But -- being trained under Tony La Russa he would be a perfect fit for a team like the Baltimore Orioles who have so many young pitchers in their rotation. Also you have John Farrell the bench coach of the Boston Red Sox now he's clause in his contract that says he can't manage until after 2010. But I've been told by insiders that at his opportunities in the National League. They might let him go at the end of this year to manage because why waiting here and faced the reality that he may end up managing a team like Toronto in their own division so he might be -- out of that contract. You or Terry Pendleton was expected to replace Bobby Cox in Atlanta for 2011. And then other good candidates include Kirk give. Who would be a great candidate for a situation like Washington or Baltimore. -- Tim -- the first base coach of the Boston Red Sox you have chip hale the coach for the Arizona and of course the dodger triple a manager. Tim wallet all would be equality manager's budget as a former gym I gotta ask you what are what does the hiring -- like when you bring it in a new manager now what do soon that the owner. Final day but. Is that GM call the shots right hours that. Brought out the -- already know it's different and every situation you have to look at every situation differently. It Houston Ed wade will come up with the names -- admitted the president tal Smith and the owner Drayton McLane Drayton -- to tell that will be involved in all the interviews in fact. He's been in their previous interviews for managers even give the candidate personality test written personality test so they're very very in depth. But the fact of the matter is it different in every situation. For example in Washington Mike risen we'll have little say at the end of the day at least in -- and make the call they'll be approved by ownership. But again it's different every level marks apparel have the most power all these openings he'll just got to get approval from -- ownership. Sounds -- and using crop of school will keep it right there let. We we talked about the experience managers available also the first your guys who could come out of the wood works. -- the leading candidates though right now for the job that you think are coming off well in Houston Ed wade has a very very close relationship. With Jim for goes he's got a lot of experience he also was a good relationship with him Bogart the first base coach the Red Sox and also. -- drinking and many active both have been in the Houston this and so they're both gonna be candidates. In Washington it's going to be very interesting because you've got a situation and Washington -- Mike Rizzo is very close to chip hale and Kirk Gibson from his days in Arizona. They're gonna be near the top of his list. He's also worked Buck Showalter but bought one too much power back then I don't in my grizzled going in that direction this time. Also was being cast in the president Washington. Terry Pendleton and -- you o's will both get any views their quality and the guy that probably helps them the most that is liked by both Mike Rizzo -- and is Bobby Valentine that would be an excellent choice. Now in Cleveland a course you've got John Farrell is the number one choice of march a pyro the question is. Will the Boston Red Sox let him out of his contract to go to Cleveland it's unknown if they will or not. And there's a lot of people Cleveland don't like the Mike Hargrove come back. And Mike Hargrove really want to come back and managed and a Baltimore. I think the best fits the guy like curt get in or Terry Pendleton they can get on their face. I won't be surprised that they Andy Macphail goes to retire Tom Kelly. And says can you come -- one more shot but because you know what my job now on the line -- Angeles let's score from the field. To the front office any GM's that might be in hot right now -- it is only one GM the job is in jeopardy in that JP were cherry that Toronto Blue Jays. And -- not keep his job is gonna depend upon who was named president of the Toronto Blue Jays now what we have learned is that pat Gillick has told his close friends that he is expecting. That are to return to Toronto as the president of baseball operations. If that happens I don't think JP return he's gonna keep his job. The pats gonna wanna win he's gonna wanna win quick and rebuild back club just like -- in Philadelphia so look for some big changes north of the border that. I think it's time -- Jim thank -- for being with us we appreciate the -- and don't forget foxsports.com. Has you covered. For all your baseball needs for Jim well I'm ready Sparage. Thanks to look at it."
