He’s pretty old and I don’t think he cares for AJ so…no
He pretty much left the Rangers for the same reason Schildt left the Padres, so probably not.
There are presently no MLB managers that are 70 years of age of older. As a 75 year old myself, I see that as a good thing. He’s had an angioplasty, and has two stents in a blood vessel that was 90% collapsed. He’s had at least three other cardio procedures since than. Why would he want the face the stresses of that job again? His ticket to Cooperstown has already been punched.
Could be a great hire but I would be worried if Niebla leaves. If Bochy and Niebla are both on board to stay in the org next year then it could definitely work
Think Ruben gets the job ? And if they don’t offer it to him you think he’ll get salty ?
If I’m correct Bochy declined the job in 2023 and went with the rangers because he didn’t like AJ’s was micromanagement style
Bochy doesn’t live in CA anymore, he lives in Nashville to be closer to his grandkids.
I can’t see Bochy unretiring to work with Preller, especially considering Preller has burned through so many managers already. The only place I’d think Bochy would even consider would be to go back to SF and help Posey.
He had his chance here, he’s old, doesn’t seem like a good fit with our players. I’m good.
Let the man retire in peace
If Peavy is correct in alluding to a clash with FO due to Shildt being an old school type manager, there’s no way this happens
He was a player with the 84 ws team and manager of the 1998 team. If he could take us there again im down
i hear lou pinella is still taking offers.
He’ll heed a walker or a Segway to get to the mound!

minus well hire Don Zimmer if you like the old guys
AJ Ellis come on down

if he comes back and wins a WS…. he would go down as one of the greatest managers of all time easily. i think he already is, but it would seal it.
3-4 more seasons here and he slides into 4th all time in wins and gets his career winning percentage above .500.
im all for it.
I hope he does!! Bring Bochy Back!
Bring Boch back!! 💪🏻
What a great mustache! I’m a little biased cause Bochy was the head coach when I was a kid. I think the story only works if we actually win the Series with him and I say he has only a year or two shots left.
The dude can barely walk..
If we can go back to back octogenarian presidents, we can handle Bochy in the dugout.
I vote no on Bochy returning.
Signed: Xavier Nady……and every other Padres rookie that tried to make it during Bochy’s Padres managerial career.
Bochy ain’t coming back.
Hopefully not , we need a young guy with some fire , that’s why I never cared for BoMel to layed back
Who do I gotta call to bring this color way back
Fernando Tatis Sr… seeing some of the other names here, I might as well throw that in the hat too.
Anybody But Nevin. (But no)
I’m all for nostalgia, but let the man enjoy the sunset of his life.
