Joe Torre in Game as manager
-
I noticed that Joe Torre will appear in coach hiring after 1st franchise season.
SDS, why not add other legendary managers? Such as Tommy Lasorda, Sparky Anderson, Earl Weaver, Connie, Mack, John McGraw, and Casey Stengel. To name a few.
Also, it's about time that players that retire in franchise are able to manage & coach after retirement. I would love to see someone like, say, Austin Barnes become a manager. Because he probably will someday. Since he's a catcher. It would also be amusing to see someone like Tatis, Jr or Ronald Acuna, Jr become managers. Especially given Acuna's comments concerning Kelenic not hustling & getting thrown out at 2nd after pimping a HR.
I'm sure that other Show players other than myself would like this.

I agree that having current players 'retire' in franchise mode and become coaches would be pretty neat.
I'm guessing Torre is only in there as an option now because they got his rights to use as a player card again. They may have the same hoops to go through for likeness rights with Mgrs as they do with players. Would be neat to have Piniella, Weaver, Billy Martin or others like those you named though. -
@ralph13m_PSN sparky Anderson is also in the game. I found Lasorda in a previous game not too long ago....23 I think it was? They have been hiding legend coaches for years.

@maxlovesweed_PSN I did not know that. Thank you.
