Dave Martinez, who has been the Cubs’ bench coach for the last three seasons and who had the same position under Joe Maddon with the Rays for seven years before that, has finally received a managerial job, according to Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports:
Davey Martinez is the Washington Nationals choice to be their next manager, sources tell FanRag Sports.
Martinez will be announced as Washington’s new manager after the World Series. It is believed the announcement is only being delayed out of deference to the Series, and MLB’s wish that teams avoid major announcements during baseball’s showcase.
