Tony La Russa, special assignments, MLB — The Cubs are involved in a thorough managerial search since they were unable to secure Joe Girardi. La Russa is certainly the big name out there, but according to a Cubs source there’s been no contact with La Russa, who has told friends he’d rather be considered for a front office job than manage again. La Russa has had chances for high-profile jobs in the past, but preferred the small-town feel of St. Louis. Cincinnati would make the most sense given La Russa’s relationship with owner Bob Castellini, but it appears the leader of the pack is pitching coach Bryan Price.
