Who will the Reds hire as their next manager? According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today their number one target is former Marlins manager Skip Schumaker.

"Schumaker, who officially informed the Marlins and his players that he had no interest in returning before departing Friday for a family emergency, is the No. 1 target of the Cincinnati Reds," Nightengale wrote. "Former Cubs manager David Ross also is expected to be interviewed."

The Reds are expected to do a thorough search before hiring David Bell's replacement. Schumaker and Ross might be the top two candidates going into the process.
