Should this be a five-year deal for Molitor, who would be on deck as Manager 14?

Doug Mientkiewicz: People point to Dougie Baseball as next in line. Caveat: He already has the bit in his mouth to manage in the big leagues, and he could get a shot elsewhere.

Mike Redmond: Marlins owner Jeff Loria will drive him nuts eventually and Redmond will be a hot ticket on managerial lists.

Torii Hunter: It's 2020 and Torii is managing the Twins and Kevin Garnett is coaching the Wolves. Why not? Let's do it.
