Michael Silverman's Boston Herald column says the choice for the next manager of the Astros is down to Manny Acta and Brad Mills:
According to a baseball official, the next Astros manager is apparently down to Red Sox [team stats] bench coach Brad Mills and former Nationals manager Manny Acta. Acta may have an edge because he came up in the Houston system, but he is also a finalist for the job in Cleveland, complicating matters a bit.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
