Oli Marmol is the manager of the Cardinals and is under contract through the end of the 2026 season. As I mention near the start of today's video, it may be considered unfair or inappropriate to discuss potential replacements for a manager who hasn't been fired ... and may not be fired. But this subject has been on my mind, and I think about it a lot. And if it's really on my mind, then I should talk about here on the Bernie Show channel. Another reason for that: those who come here to view the video and engage in discussion are deeply interested in the Cards' managerial situation -- so why avoid talking about it? I don't work for the Cardinals. I work for those who support my career endeavors.
Here's a big factor in all of this: we don't know who will be making the decision on (1) Marmol, and (2) a new manager hire if there is one. Would ut be John Mozeliak? Chaim Bloom? A combination of both, if they are working together for 2025? And what is Bill DeWitt Jr.'s role in all of this? These questions cannot be settled today.
But in this video, I look into this hypothetical scenario (new manager) and focus on several individuals, which I will list in alphabetical order:
Daniel Descalso
Terry Francona
Yadier Molina
Albert Pujols
Skip Schumaker
I encourage you to comment and tell us who you would choose if the Cardinals go shopping for a new manager.
