The Orioles have had the entire playoffs to start to figure out who they want to hire to be in charge of baseball operations. They’ve had longer than that when you consider that they probably knew before the end of the season that they would be replacing Dan Duquette in that role. The World Series is over and the Orioles, according to MLB Network’s Jon Morosi, are still not yet close in determining who the new boss will be.
Morosi also reported on a handful of names who his sources say have been considered as possible candidates: former Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington, MLB’s Senior Vice President of Baseball Operations Kim Ng, Astros scouting director Mike Elias, and Athletics assistant GM Dan Kantrovitz.
