The good news Wednesday for the Texas Rangers is that no managerial candidates were subjected to the rainy, lousy weather that plagued the area.
A source said that the Rangers did not bring in anyone to vie for the vacancy, created when Jeff Banister was fired Sept. 21.
In the month since the regular season ended, sources have confirmed that the Rangers granted formal interviews to at least 10 candidates. The latest was Minnesota Twins bench coach Derek Shelton, who interviewed Tuesday.
The Rangers could also interview Los Angeles Dodgers third-base coach Chris Woodward, Boston Red Sox bench coach Ron Roenicke and Arizona Diamondbacks vice president of player development Mike Bell.
