Paul O’Neill, who grew up in Ohio and came up through the Reds organization, said on ESPN Radio he would be interested in becoming the Reds next manager.
“I would love to sit down and find out what their thoughts are,” said O’Neill, who lives in Cincinnati though he is a Yankeees broadcaster on YES. “There are basically two organizations in my life, the Reds and the Yankees. Anytime you live in the city, you understand and see what happens in an organization. It is not a rebuilding situation. They are a very, very good team. I think anybody would be interested in taking a good team and winning a World Series.”
The Reds fired Dusty Baker after they lost to the Pirates in the N.L. wild-card game.
