Erick LewinI'm pretty upset about this, but i thought this may happen. Torre was great for New York. I think he'd make a great commisioner, but only time will tell.
I really dont know who will get the nod.
Mattingly has or had the best shot, yet it's rumored that he said he wasn't ready yet.
Girardi is another option, although i don't think they'll go that route. Girardi and Steinbrenner(s) feuds may dwarf the old ones of Billy Martin and the Boss.
I personally don't like Larussa so i hope not.
Another name i haven't heard mentioned anywhere that is within the organization is Larry Bowa who has managerial experience. I don't know if he's a canidate though.
In the end i don't know ...With a gun to my head I'd have to pick Mattingly now...but I really don't know.
I hope they stay within the organization though. Maybe Paul O'neill as the new bench or hitting coach? I think he'd wake the bats up! ...not to mention a few gatorade jugs!
