Mariner’s Jason Kanzler hiring questioned by analysts
The Seattle Mariners went in a bold direction with their new manager, and not everyone is sold on the hire. Jason Kanzler has never managed at any level, and that lack of experience has some analysts questioning whether he is the right man for the job.
At his introductory press conference this week, the 36-year-old laid out his vision.
“The brand of baseball that I’d like to see and be manifest in this identity is something akin to step on their throats. We want to win. We want to beat the other team,” Kanzler said.
On “The Chris Rose Rotation,” former MLB infielder Trevor Plouffe weighed in on the hire, and he was not fully convinced.
