Mike Scioscia plans to manage Los Angeles Angels next season.

 

 

Have at it.

2019 cannot come soon enough.

[Vladfan]

Yes!!

[wopphil]

Truly the least of my concerns this off-season.

[tomsred]

Good, get on the same page as Eppler and let's do it! 

[Amazing Larry]

[Sully151]

Darn. And we could have had Matt Williams too. Oh well.

[VariousCrap]

[Adam]

The only way he doesn't is if Mattingly is shitcanned but I'm skeptical that the Dodgers' current FO would even have interest in him. 

[Angelsjunky]

 

Juan Savage?

[Mark68]

Non-story.

 

It was a pipe dream to think he actually would opt out. Why would he? His situation could be no better than it is here.

[Troll Daddy]

SHOCKER

[Redondo]

Of course he doesn't want to leave. Why should he? He has a comfortable situation here and gets paid well.

 

I want him to move on so we can get some fresh blood at manager to go along with the new GM, but it's not happening.

[Homebrewer]

Of course he does. Nobody really expected he wouldn't.

It's still sort of gut-wrenching to hear it.

It takes a lot of the hope and expectation out of looking forward to spring, when I know he will still be sitting in the dugout.

I'm not a Mike Scioscia fan, but in the "glass half full" department, he has never, in 15 years, had a Matt Williams type team meltdown.

[Homebrewer]

Scioscia's team won 2 more games than Williams' boys. 

[beatlesrule]

The writing was on the wall back when they selected a catcher with their pick. That might as well have been his announcement that he wasn't opting out. I stated as much in the thread. I really really dislike Scioscia and it really sucks that the owner of my favorite team is enamored with him for some reason.

[mulwin444]

Well, shit, guess I'll have to keep rooting for them like I have every year since I was 4 years old.

 

He didn't opt out...doesn't mean he can't replaced at some point.

[ukyah]

in other news, the eagle likes his perch.

[Jay]

Why wouldn't Scioscia come back?  Because you guys hate him?

[Glen]

Why wouldn't Scioscia come back?  Because you guys hate him?

 

 

You've been on a roll lately.  Well done.

[Jim]

The only way he doesn't is if Mattingly is shitcanned but I'm skeptical that the Dodgers' current FO would even have interest in him. 

Not at all skeptical, I think the Dodgers would welcome Scioscia in a second with open arms, on their terms however. The question is; would Scioscia accept their philosophy? I think he would.

[Puget Sound Angel]

He the owner, why would he opt out?

[tdawg87]

2016, 2017, and 2018 over.
