The World Series holds significance for the Detroit Tigers' managerial vacancy. The clash between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay Rays began Tuesday, and the moment it ends the Tigers can get on the phone with two ex-managers with championship rings.
A.J. Hinch and Alex Cora — both involved in the Houston Astros' cheating scandal in 2017 — will be freed from their one-year ban from MLB. The Tigers are going to get in touch with them. The Chicago White Sox and Boston Red Sox, both with manager needs, are expected to reach out to one or both, as well.
