But obviously a former Preller acquaintance. Can Preller ever truly be expected to consider anyone outside his Texas Ranger scope of experience?

Wasn't Tingler working inside the Rangers front office? And only has a bit of coaching experience?
Just what I heard on the radio, not saying its the gospel.

The Athletic mentioned Eduardo Perez as an intriguing option. You guys interested?

The Athletic-
4. San Diego Padres: Eduardo Pérez
The Padres’ window of contention is expected to begin in 2020 or 2021, but there will still be plenty of player development needed at the major-league level if they’re going to reach their goals. A veteran manager like Buck Showalter, Mike Scioscia, Dusty Baker or either Joe (Maddon or Girardi) definitely makes sense, but I am not sure that is the best formula with the style of GM A.J. Preller. He might be better off with another up-and-coming manager, someone like Raúl Ibañez, Mark Kotsay, Joe Espada or Sam Fuld. I think Eduardo Pérez would probably be the best pick. The one common thread of successful first-year managers like Boone, Cora and Baldelli over the last few years is that they are all great human beings with strong communication skills and exceptional knowledge of all aspects of the game. Players relate to them and respect them equally. Eduardo Pérez can be that person for the Padres.

Tingler coached for 3 years in the Dominican, then was an instructional coordinator. 3 years as a minor league field coordinator, 2 years as a major league field coordinator, then became an assistant GM. Currently coaching in the Dominican, overseeing guys like Josh Naylor.

For the OP, the paths of Green and Tingler just completely diverge at age 26. There is no real comparison to be had after that point. "I haven't heard of this guy so he must be terrible" is not a proper method to evaluate the merit of a managerial candidate.

He needs to get this one right, giving an unknown a shot at the bigs is too much of a gamble.

Ryan, wasn’t it you in a different thread that said getting someone from a winning organization is more important than experience, or something like that? The Rangers are hardly a winning organization at last look! I just want someone that knows what way is the right way. And some of that may not come from Preller.

The Rangers made back to back World Series appearances in 2010 and 2011, went to the wild card in 2012 and made back to back playoff appearances in 2015 and 2016. I would call that far superior to what this organization has done in recent memory. Rebuilds happen and are inevitable for market constained teams.

The comparison is no managerial experience for either one of them.

While I do not at all oppose a first time manager (given recent trends of success), I absolutely agree Preller HAS to nail this hire. Otherwise, he will be out on HIS ass.

The comparison is no managerial experience for either one of them. No MLB managerial experience. Blanket statement that ignores the rest of Tingler's profile. They aren't alike in literally any other way.

Fowler needs to step aside and let Seidler handle the baseball operations. It won't happen, but I can dream.

Well, as it is right now we have two of Prellers old fishing buddies as the top two candidates. It just looks inept and short sighted. The Padres don’t need best friends, they need best candidates.

The owners are spending millions of dollars, that should merit some influence on the hiring.
