[LA Times] Don Mattingly will replace Joe Torre as manager of the Dodgers

rockets934life · Sep 17, 2010

Don Mattingly will replace Joe Torre as manager of the Dodgers at the end of the season, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation.

An official announcement will be made Friday before the Dodgers' game against the Colorado Rockies.

Mattingly has been the Dodgers hitting coach since the middle of the 2008 season, which was Torre's first with the team. Before that, they were together with the New York Yankees.

The Dodgers announced earlier this season that Mattingly, who has never been a manager, would guide a team in the Arizona fall league, fueling speculation he was being prepared to take over the major league club.

Torre has been a manager for 28 seasons, the last three with the Dodgers. It is still possible he will remain with the organization, according to one of the sources, who required anonymity because the team had not yet announced the move.
