Crucial door just closed on one Twins fan favorite in leaguewide manager search

MLB's Mark Feinsand reported that former outfielder Torii Hunter won't get the Los Angeles Angels' open manager job after rumors of him being one of the candidates for the vacancy. However, Feinsand said a source told him Hunter could still be a candidate for the Minnesota Twins' open manager job.

Hunter joins Nick Punto, James Rowson, Derek Shelton, Ramón Vázquez, Vance Wilson, Scott Servais and Kurt Suzuki on the list of reported Twins manager candidates.

Hunter has no prior experience managing or coaching, but he has been working as a special assistant in the league for several years.
