Bench coach Pat Murphy serious candidate for Brewers manager position
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsThe Brewers have begun the search for a new manager, and one of the top candidates for the job is an internal candidate. Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that bench coach Pat Murphy is a serious candidate for the job. In addition, he also notes that multiple interviews have already been conducted with Murphy.
Promoting Murphy to the managerial role may be the best way to keep continuity within the team. Murphy was originally brought in to be the bench coach following the 2015 season. He was Craig Counsell’s college coach at Notre Dame and brought in to fill the bench coach position.
