If 2023 ends up being Tito's last year, (I think he manages in 2024) I'd suspect it might be DeMarlo Hale that takes over. He's often talked about within the organization as someone that is highly respected and should have been given the opportunity to manage a team. Wouldn't be surprised to see Francona, when he ultimately retires, to stay with the organization in some sort of advisory role.

On a side note, Ramirez is an incredible team leader. This is amazing.
