It turns out Joe Maddon is not the only candidate the Angels intend to consider for their managerial opening. The 65-year-old spent 31 years with the Angels before taking his first managerial post with Tampa Bay in 2006. He was the only Angels pitcher to surpass the 100-inning mark. Among them were Houston Astros coach Joe Espada, Angels special assistant Eric Chavez, and 11-time Gold Glove-winning shortstop Omar Vizquel, none of whom had managed in the majors. All three remain available, as are former major league managers Joe Girardi, John Farrell and John Gibbons.
