Colorado Rockies manager Walt Weiss might be managing his final games

Who will manage the Rockies in 2017 is a major question in the final weekend of the 2016 season. While it's possible for the Rockies to offer Weiss another contract, it's looking increasingly like he won't be back. Patrick Saunders notes that the fact that there haven't been any "discussions about returning is a red flag."

The Rockies are in an unusual position in that they can hire a new manager without firing their existing one. Dick Monfort is more likely to sign-off on letting Weiss flitter away instead of firing him. Once the Rockies have an open position, they have no reason not to at least begin considering and interviewing other candidates.
