With the manager’s job now open for the Arizona Diamondbacks, the club’s management team said they will be deliberate in their ultimate choice.
The instability of personnel staying for a period of time, and a revolving door syndrome in recent years, could drive prospective candidates from the desert. Conversely, the lure of landing an attractive job with a struggling franchise and help the team reach glory could be enticing.
One candidate, already rumored to be on the short list of several clubs is Bud Black. Highly respected within the game and engaging with the media, Black, at 59-years-old, would be an ideal fit for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
