If I were an Indians fan, I would want Tito as the manager of my team any day of the week and twice on Sunday. I am sure that Sandy Alomar will make a fine manager in his own right, but he doesn't have the resume of a Terry Francona.
The only questions remain is what do the Indians right now have to offer Tito? Why would he want to come to Cleveland? I am quite sure he could get a better baseball gig or stay in the studio than to manage a hot mess like the Indians. I know if I were Francona, I know there is a possible managerial opening with the Angels and the Tigers should either or both teams fail to make the post season.
Utter Chaos
Until they get somebody that can bat .300 and hit home runs it doesn't matter who the manager is.
It's very frustrating seeing this lineup out there:
C - .260, 18 HR
1B - .234, 12 HR
2B - .257, 14 HR
SS - .271, 15 HR
3B - .241, 4 HR
LF - .203, 11 HR
CF - .286, 6 HR
RF - .280, 15 HR
DH - .226, 11 HR
Their team leaders have 18 HR, 76 RBI, and a .286 BA
There's 22 players in the majors that have single handedly exceeded the team leaders for the Indians: Aaron Hill, Adam Jones, Adrian Beltre, Adrian Gonzalez, Albert Pujols, Alex Rios, Allen Craig, Andrew McCutchen, Aramis Ramirez, Billy Butler, Buster Posey, Carlos Gonzalez, David Freese, David Wright, Matt Holliday, Miguel Cabrera, Mike Trout, Paul Goldschmidt, Prince Fielder, Robinson Cano, Ryan Braun, and Yoenis Cespedes

Francona if he can be signed
