RANGERS ARE SNIFFING AROUND GIRARDI'S HYDRANT


And that merely means that the Rangers need a manager... and they are looking at a guy named Joe Girardi. That being said, that picture above is kind of funny.

"The Rangers are showing they are willing to at least think big by interviewing former Yankees manager Joe Girardi on Friday. Girardi spent 10 years managing the Yankees in 2008-17 and led them to a World Series title in 2009. He also managed the Marlins in 2006. He is the most experienced and successful candidate Rangers general manager Jon Daniels has interviewed during his three managerial searches....

Girardi was dismissed in part because the Yankees wanted a different voice in their clubhouse and somebody who was better at communicating with their young players. Those were some of the same reasons the Rangers parted ways with Banister. If Girardi is hired by the Rangers, it will be interesting to see how those issues are addressed. But there is no doubt Girardi has an impressive resume, possibly the best one ever considered by the Rangers in a managerial search. He has already interviewed with the Reds."

I actually see the Rangers as a perfect landing spot for Joe, but of course we will have to see.
