The World Series is over and the 2018 MLB season is over, with the Boston Red Sox world champions again after taking out the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games.
Next up is the off-season, though twenty-eight teams have been in that mode for at least a week. Seven of those have some extra 2019 prep work, either looking for a new manager, a new general manager or both in one case.
The Texas Rangers were one of six with a managerial opening, and are now one of two clubs still looking. General manager Jon Daniels said last week that the search would stretch into this week, and it could go longer.
