5. Dave Trembley, Baltimore Orioles
Why? Baltimore´s bullpen spit the bit last season, so who do they give the managerial gig to? The guy in charge of the bullpen, naturally. Trembley’s path to the gig was a circuitous one; he’s the rare MLB manager who never played the game professionally. Also, we’re not sure if his name is “Dave” Trembley, or “Mike” Trembley, or “Mike Trombley.”
Prediction for 2008: Lots of bunting and prattle about “playing the game the right way” and all those other old-school standbys loved by franchises that lost their way in 1984. Given that the rebuilding Orioles can’t rationally expect to be any good until 2011, Trembley/Trombley might as well get “babysitter” inked onto his business cards.
