Well I’ll be darned. The Dodgers have named Dave Roberts as their new manager. Multiple sources are confirming that both sides have reached agreement. However the details of the contract won’t be completed until later tonight.
Although Dave Roberts will be #Dodgers next manager, he's still negotiating contract details with team. Should wrap up tonight.

This is somewhat refreshing as Roberts was not even on the radar in the beginning of the search.
